Wine Country weather is notoriously gorgeous, so lace up those hiking boots and get yourself to a winery. Trekking is the stylish new pastime at bucolic estates, and why not? Besides the beautiful setting, the reward of wine tasting awaits at the end of exercise.

Jordan Vineyard & Winery

Plan ahead for Saturday, November 5, when this private 1,200-acre estate morphs into a Wine Country adventurer's playground. The guided journey ($75) begins with a continental breakfast at Vista Point, the property's highest hilltop boasting a sweeping panorama of multiple wine regions and mountain ranges. Then it's off to traverse four miles of hills and valleys, through natural wildlife habitats, sustainably farmed vineyards, olive orchards, lakes, the cattle ranch, and the chef's garden. Finish up at the Winery Chateau with estate-crafted charcuterie and Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay wines. //1474 Alexander Valley Rd. (Healdsburg), jordanwinery.com

Alexander Valley Vineyards

The by-reservation guided hikes at Alexander Valley Vineyards are hosted year-round (unless it's pouring rain), starting at 10:30am for strolls across the Healdsburg estate. Diverse trails stretch from the banks of the Russian River up onto the hillsides; you'll taste wines right where they're grown – primarily Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Merlot, plus smatterings of Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese, Cabernet Franc and Syrah. The $50 price tag includes a box lunch with eight sandwich choices (may we suggest the yummy Healdsburg Avenue of London broil, white cheddar, spring mix, mayo and horseradish). To drink: 2011 Cyrus, a Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec, Petit Verdot blend // 8644 Highway 128 (Healdsburg), avvwine.com

Bartholomew Park Winery

This gracious, historic winery is surrounded by 400-acres of Bartholomew Memorial Park, and tastings include self-guided hiking excursions along three miles of gorgeous meadow-to-mountain trails. Stop in at the museum chronicling the history of grape-growing in Sonoma, then treat yourself to a picnic near a replica of pioneer winemaker Agoston Haraszthy's Palladian Villa, which was destroyed by fire around the turn of the century.
