Winters is a small agricultural city in Yolo County, about 30 miles from Sacramento and 20 miles northwest of UC Davis.

The drive from Sacramento takes about 45 minutes, while Bay Area visitors need roughly an hour via I-80 to I-505. The city calls itself the "Gateway to Lake Berryessa" and hosts California's largest almond festival each February when thousands of surrounding almond trees bloom white.
