Travel, Lodging and Everything In Between

Getting Here

Fresno Yosemite International Airport (FAT) is the closest airport to Merced at around an hour drive. However, you'll probably find more flight options flying into San Francisco (SFO) or San Jose (SJC) which are each about a 2 hour drive. Be sure to factor in traffic when driving in from these heavily populated areas.

Where to Stay

Stay for the weekend and discover the many virtues of this charming small town environment that make Merced known as a "City on the Rise." We've partnered with the local El Capitan Hotel, conveniently located around the corner from the start/finish of the ride, for a discounted rate during Gran Fondo Hincapie weekend. Use discount code FONDO to receive the Gran Fondo Hincapie room rate!
