Bay Area Hiking, Walking, Wellness Club

Hello Ocean Lover, Let's meet go on a Green exercise wellness hike, enjoy the natural beauty of the Healing Sea, Beautiful Ocean views for our physical health and mental Well-being 😇

Sometimes all you need is an easy stroll by the ocean to refresh your spirits. This track along the Pacific Ocean north of Santa Cruz is one of the best places in California to do just that.

You'll see gulls, geese, pelicans, and other waterfowl and you might hear the distant bark of passing sea lions. If your timing's right, you might even spot passing whales on their annual migrations.

Wilder Ranch State Park is a CA State Park on the Pacific Ocean coast north of Santa Cruz. The park was formerly a dairy ranch, and many of the ranch buildings have been restored for use as a museum.

Another bonus: touring the grounds of a farm replete with antique cars, farm machinery, and other remnants of farming life along the Pacific in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

This track is very basic: just start out from the parking lot at the Wilder Ranch State Park visitors center and follow Old Cove Landing Trail along the ocean. Eventually, it turns northward again and loops back to where you started.

The trail surface is a natural surface (dirt, sand, rocks). It is typically at least 8 feet wide. There are railroad crossings ...

The whole trail is estimated to be in the mostly gentle (5% or less) grade category. All-terrain tires or motorized equipment may be needed for the surface type and grade.

Meet: 1:30pm at the parking lot trailhead near the restrooms
*Hike time: 2:00 pm

​Hello Nature Lovers, let's meet up for a Green Exercise and go on a Wellness Hike, enjoy the nature and the beauty of the healing mountains and green trees forests for our physical health and mental well-being 😇

The town of Portola Valley is a runner's and hiker's paradise, with as many miles of trails as there are paved roads. The trails are interwoven throughout the town, connecting to residential streets. The highlight of the Portola Valley trail system is Coal Mine Ridge. This 400-acre wooded ridge, located between Alpine Road and Los Trancos Road, contains about ten miles of trails.

The name "Coal Mine Ridge" comes from a low-grade coal mine that was opened on the ridge in 1855.
