Vineyard mornings. Purposeful days.
Northern California’s wine-country landscape, paired with Sonoma’s established racing setting.
Sonoma Raceway Karting Center + Montage Healdsburg. Wine-country mornings, vineyard lunches and the calm of Healdsburg give parents space to enjoy Sonoma while the driver programme gives the week its sporting thread.
Settle into wine country.
Montage Healdsburg places contemporary hospitality among vineyards and oak trees. Outdoor spaces and views across the landscape make the setting part of everyday life at the resort.
Explore Healdsburg’s food scene, discover a vineyard or spend the day around the pool and spa. The region rewards curiosity, but it also makes doing very little feel entirely natural.
The Parent Experience
Listen. Practise. Understand.
Sonoma Raceway Karting Center sits within the wider raceway estate. It gives the week a recognisable sporting home, with coaching focused on clear explanations and a repeatable approach to the lap.
Aurelian’s approach begins with driver assessment, then builds through practice and useful feedback. Confidence and sound judgement matter alongside pace.
Driver DevelopmentTwo experiences. One considered choice.
A Sonoma County holiday with substance on both sides: wine-country hospitality and a circuit environment that earns its place in the week.
