Thousands Oaks, California, a city just 12 miles from the Pacific Ocean, offers a wealth of activities for any visitor. The inviting climate makes the city a great place to experience the outdoors. You can enjoy the 15,000-plus acres of public open space, including 75 miles of hiking, biking and equestrian trails. Or you can head south to the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area.
Stuft Pizza Bar & Grill
Unless most sports bars, the Stuft Pizza boasts an extensive menu of Italian cuisine. You can enjoy the game while feasting on a plate of pasta, a traditional calzone or one of the specialty pizzas named for sporting events. The March Madness, World Series and Indy 500 are favorites. The Stuft Pizza also operates its own microbrewery.
