Soledad is a compact, friendly base in the Salinas Valley with easy access to Pinnacles National Park for hiking, climbing and weekend nature escapes, plus local vineyards and open country that make mid-assignment life feel restorative rather than isolating.
You’re also close enough to Salinas for everyday amenities and Monterey for beaches, the Aquarium and scenic coastal drives, so evenings and weekends offer plenty to explore.
