Visitors are now able to access Esalen as well as other businesses and trails in northern Big Sur via twice-daily convoys on Highway 1 operated by Caltrans.
Convoys run only at 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. each day. These are the only opportunities to travel into and out of Big Sur, so visitors must plan accordingly.

He founded and directed the Hanuman Foundation Dying Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico, the first residential facility in the United States to support conscious dying, and has been the Executive Director of the Living/Dying Project in Santa Fe, and since 1986 in the San Francisco Bay Area. With Ram Dass, Daniel Goleman, and Dwarka Bonner, Dale is the co-author of Journey of Awakening: A Meditator’s Guidebook (Bantam Books).
A teacher of meditation since 1974, Dale lectures and gives workshops on the topics of meditation, healing, spiritual support for those with life-threatening illness, and on caregiving as a spiritual practice. He has a doctorate degree from Stanford University. Dale’s passion is the healing of our individual and collective fear of death so that we may be free.
