The Perfect Fall Weekend in Julian: Apple Picking, Pie, Mines & More

Julian, CA is a popular town that people from Southern California love visiting in the fall. We decided to spend a weekend in the cozy mountain town and loved getting to know the fun town. Over the course of 2 days we ate pie, picked apples, toured a mine and had lots of great food. Here is all the information and let us know what you think in the comments!

It is so good you were able to incorporate your family on the channel and still making it work. The kiddos are growing so fast!

[@debo9396]

Thank you for sharing your family adventures. As much as I love your iconic travels with your Dad, and I know a major source of your income, it warms my heart to see your family and you.

[@DanielRWomack]

This could not have been timed better. I've been looking for "fall" things to enjoy and I keep forgetting how great Julian is. We're 50 miles SW of Julian and this gives us a great full day of meals and activities!

[@Twobarpsi]

What a great trip! The mine tour looked cool.

[@wildyams]

Next time you go to Julian you should definitely check out the California Wolf Center there. They rescue gray wolves and have some that you can see. Very entertaining and educational.

[@californiathroughmylens]

Will do, thanks for the tip!

[@hope186]

Loved going to Julian during apple season!!!! 🍎🍏

[@R-abl]

Your kids are lucky to have you guys as parents!!! They will have great memories as adults!!! Been following you for years!

[@RobertFKleinberg]

Very nicely done. Enjoyable video.

[@BruceMBeals]

You forgot to stop at Dudley's Famous Bakery and Cafe in Santa Ysabel.

[@californiathroughmylens]

Next time, I will check it out!

[@essietangle9931]

The twins have really taken a growth spirt❤️❤️

[@Califoreigners]

Thats so great! Looks like an amazing weekend trip for sure. We definitely ran into problems finding apples as well this year haha.

[@californiathroughmylens]

haha it was a lot harder than I thought to find apples

[@me3883]

You are so brave to travel with little kids

[@mystikrebel1089]

California seems to have a very naturual cinematic landscape which I can see why so many movies are often made there

[@graham974]

The variety of landscapes and the weather for sure!

[@californiathroughmylens]

Yea, it is a pretty special state for sure

[@natlovell122]

It’s awesome, but expensive!

[@josephmartinez8803]

The Dummyrats made a mess of it.

[@thortessem271]

Great video.

[@stevej7139]

I miss going to Julian(live in Washington now), thanks for the trip. I used to live in east county San Diego so a trip to Julian was not an uncommon thing, when ever we would go camping in the desert outside Borrego Springs we would stop off and grab some pie and cider for the campout. My personal favorite is Mom's although getting there early in the day is critical, then the Julian Cider Mill just up the street same side is where we grab cider and probably some honey sticks before hitting one of the ways down into the desert from there.

[@bobbysavetheworld4629]

One Piece ❤ Garnet Peak is awesome, I highly recommend exploring that highway more in the future if you haven’t already. Best place to catch sunrise in San Diego County 💯

[@nancycamaquin6648]

Outstanding episode! Amy, you are awesome hiking with a child on your back on that trail. Beautiful area also. I will have to visit. Thank you for such a lovely sightseeing tour. Your family is beautiful!❤❤❤

[@YellowProductions]

Mmmm.. Apple pie.. mmmm

[@manybikes]

Love it! I’ll be there Nov 2nd - 5th

[@californiathroughmylens]

Hope you have a great time!

[@Ianman258]

Nothing beats the strawberry rhubarb pie in Julian!! Loved watching and learning about some spots there I've never heard of! So happy you got to go and enjoy the scenery with the whole fam

[@californiathroughmylens]

Glad you enjoyed it! I will have to try that pie next time!

[@ck4426]

Great video!!! Wonderful to see your family again enjoying adventures together!!!

[@toshibavoodoo]

256K Sub's!!!! I remember watching after Huell died (or I found out) and thought this channel is GREAT! I met you too at downtown Riverside, and thought was a great couple!! So happy this channel is growing! Love when Good People succeed, and pray your family will continue to grow and succeed. Im jeoulus of the trips you make with your DAD, I'm do as much as I can with my DAD but difficult with work, kids, and Wife OR life has demands.

[@cmichaelhaugh8517]

I’ve spent a lot of vacation time in the Anza Borrego and love taking breaks in Julian.

[@4theLoveofCurls]

Thanks for taking us on your adventure! Julian is on my bucket list this year.

[@californiathroughmylens]

Our pleasure! I hope you are able to visit

[@davidzamora4423]

Thank you for sharing your video with us. I'm going to have to get my girlfriend to drive out there. Your kids are getting big!!

[@IMJAFO2]

It is amazing that your kids have grown up so fast. AND, they have Amy's looks (which is a good thing).

[@raygayton2394]

Thank you for this awesome look at Julian. I live near by but still learned a few spots I didn’t know about. Well done 👍

[@theathjr]

Thanks for all of the tips. Julian in the fall has been on my bucket list for years. Man those kids are getting big.

[@marsingle777]

My husband and I live in Julian! You did a great job of capturing the best of what our little town and the surrounding area has to offer. Well done!

[@SharonNolfi]

Very much enjoyed seeing the kids! Beautiful family.

[@craftergin]

Julian is amazing and has a rich history. I prefer it to Oak Glen.

[@californiathroughmylens]

Yea, I really enjoyed spending a few days there

[@jacobberntsen9296]

If you get up they’re early the Julian apple pie co location in Santa ysabel usually has apple donuts and Dudley’s bread is killer!

[@hope186]

Always stopped at Dudley’s!!!

[@john123wayne]

[@dawnwolfe6541]

The twins are adorable! It's fun watching them grow.

[@californiathroughmylens]

[@AudrieNavarro-f1c]

What time does everything open ? Taking my trip tomorrow 🎉

[@zanjero]

OMG, the kids are getting so big. What's up with that!

[@parkhopcreations]

Thank you ! We were invited for the new years weekend but had no idea what to expect. This video was perfect with just the info we needed !!❤

[@trumer-and-co]

I love the Julian area. Hopefully you were able to stop at Dudley's Bakery, which is on the way to Ramona. Great video. Thanks for sharing your time.

[@denaparrish4948]

Great weekend adventure. Kids look just like Amy. Cute as buttons. Thanks for sharing.

[@Cause4Alarm]

I go down there all the time like to go shoot my assault weapons nearby for Gavin Newsom 😂 and then go get some alcohol and some pie at the end of the day plus great barbecue at Jillian Beer Company! I'll definitely stop by the Cooler and if you see it you'll know what I'm talking about! Julian beer company has better Pizza!

[@thunderbeast2126]

I love going to Julian. I’ve been going there for years

[@californiathroughmylens]

So awesome, this was our first real trip there

[@thunderbeast2126]

That’s cool. You should go back during Christmas time it’s all decorated up but the only thing is that is get really packed with people.

[@darlar.9043]

I have heard so much about the apple pie shops from numerous PCT hikers. I have wanted to visit Julian for the pie. I’ve heard both Mom’s and Julian’s are great. Thank you for all the additional info in this video about the other fun that is available. No I really want to go.

[@joshuapeaslee5677]

Loved your video. We have a condo that we inherited in Bonsall. We love to go there and visit the surroundings. You have a beautiful family. One of my biggest regrets is not having a daughter after all my sons. Regardless I'm still thankful to God.

[@jennyc5631]

❤ I wish I could live like this full time with my kiddo! I tend to do 4 family road trips a year at the very least. Lots of hikes, museums, beach days, and fun attractions. I have a map in my sons room and we talk about the places we visited as part of our bedtime story hour. I love to see how your family has grown over the years ❤

[@garyconley69]

Thanks for this! I haven't been to Julian in ages since Warner Springs Ranch closed down and as always enjoyed the video

[@prowrestlingisart6742]

Went to Oak Glen for our first apple picking experience this year because it was closer and only had an afternoon. But Julian looks awesome and definitely a multi day experience

[@californiathroughmylens]

Oak Glen is great as well, we normally go there so figured we would try Julian

[@prowrestlingisart6742]

@@californiathroughmylens julian is definitely on the itinerary for next fall and will use your video as a guide!
