Historic Old Town Folsom, California (Part 1), Folsom, California

Hello and welcome to this California Walking Tour of Old Town Folsom. I am Lynn Momboisse and have lived in California all of my life and been exploring the state for decades. I love to discover new area in my backyard and bring my adventures as a hometown tourist to life in walking and driving tours. 

This 1 1/2 mile walking tour begins in the parking lot located at the corner of Riley and Scott Street and ends at the Truss Bridge. On this tour you will hear about: 

It will take about 90 minutes to walk but will depend upon how much time you spend in any of the shops, wine rooms, restaurants or museums. Currently Sacramento County is on the state watch list for COVID-19 so please understand that everything will not be open or will have COVID open hours. Alright it is time to get going.

As you face the multi-story red brick building, turn to your left and walk out of the parking lot to Scott Street. Directly across Scott Street will be the Moose Lodge. Turn right on Scott and continue to the end of the block. While you walk, I'll begin the story of the history of Folsom with its earliest inhabitants.  ......
