Frequently Asked Questions

We often receive numerous inquiries about the trail, so we've compiled a list of comprehensive answers to address those for your convenience.

  • The wine trail does not provide transportation. You can experience the trail on your own, with a designated driver service, or hiring a tour company such as Crush Beer & Wine Tours. View our transportation page for more information.

  • All of our wineries happily welcome you and your furry companions! Your pets are invited to join you, provided they are friendly and leashed. At Arbor Hill, pets are allowed under their outdoor tents during warmer months where they’ll find water bowls for their comfort. Song Hill and Inspire Moore accommodates leashed, nonaggressive dogs, while Hazlitt Red Cat and Heron Hill extend their welcome year-round, allowing animals both on the property and in the tasting room.
