Big SUR Ca.

Heading up to Big Sur on Tuesday, coming from the South. Can I take my Toy hauler all the way up through the 1? Trailer overall length is 24ft. If not how far up the 1 can I drive before I have to Jump on the 101?

  • Highway 1 all the way up to Monterey is Easy drive for those of you wondering.

    X2 on this question. I am near morro bay also looking to take 1 up near big sur. is the entire 1 RV accessible and what skill level is this road? I also have a 25' rig like the OP.


    When you leaving? We are heading up there wednesday. I might just drive it up, we will have the mountain side but on the way back just take the 101. Ill report back when I get there if i can get cell service.


    I'm leaving tomorrow (wed). I'm actually camping at san simeon state park near hurst castle.

  • I have pulled both ways thru Big Sur and had no problems, except for several idiot drivers that wanted to go faster that the speed limit. 1st trip was south in the Suburban pulling a 27X Wilderness TT and the trip north was in an Excursion pulling a 35' overall TT. In fact, I pulled the Wilderness setup from Olema all the way up #1 to Legget with out any problems.

    This may be too late but it's been pretty foggy the past couple days. If you want the view wait until late September or early October.

  • Longer trailers do it all the time. I wouldn't do it, too curvy. It's fun on a motorcycle but not on four wheels.
