Easy Hike: Talepop Loop

This is a relatively easy hike (4 miles and 3 "small" hills) with pleasant views of oak studded rolling hills. The hike starts out at Juan Bautista de Anza Park, connects with the Talepop Loop trail and climbs a ridgeline with nice views of both Liberty and Las Virgenes Canyons. "Talepop" is the name of the Chumash village that once existed there.

Meeting Place: Juan Bautista de Anza Park. Park is on the corner of Las Virgenes and Lost Hills Rds. Meet at west end of parking lot.

From the Valley - Take 101 west. Exit Las Virgenes. Left on Las Virgenes to Lost Hills Rd. Right on Lost Hills. Left into Park

From Ventura - Take 101 east. Exit Lost Hills Rd. Right on Lost Hills. Right into Park

Bring 1 Qt water, hiking shoes (sturdy tennis shoes are ok), snack.

Note: Know your limitations. If you can walk/treadmill 4 miles you can probably complete this hike, even if you are a little out of shape. But it will be a little tougher than a mere walk around the neighborhood.
