HEY YOU! YEAH YOU!
Its hot. I mean...
You're hot!
Yeah, gurl! You're so hot! You need a lil waterfall action? How about an Brunch after?

Come shimmy on down to Switzer Falls and dunk your fine a$$ in a completely gorgeous waterfall. Sure, you'll be so darn hot because you'll be hiking but hot is hot, am I right? Then we're gonna mosey down to Hill Street Cafe for brunch! Gotta make up for lost calories with mimosas!

Okay, I'm done being a creep. Here are the deets!

Switzer Falls via Gabrielino Trail: 3.8 Miles, Kid and Dog Friendly, ADVENTURE PASS REQUIRED for parking. If you plan on hiking often, its worth paying for an annual pass. :)

USE THIS LINK FOR DIRECTIONS!!!!!!

The trail is pretty straight forward. No real rocks to climb, no boulders to jump... but there is a hill. Its a bit long but manageable (dont stress, I take a LOT of breaks). Parking located in the lot, located down in the picnic area, off the main highway requires an Adventure Pass. Find them HERE.

*****DO NOT PARK AT THE TOP OF THE HILL!******

This trail is mostly shaded but I recommend bringing sunscreen, two liters of water and some snacks (2.5-3 liters if you're bringing a pooch). Crazy hiking boots not totally required, but you do you Boo. :)

As always, please use the AllTrails link above for directions to the trailhead.

THEN! BRUNCH! I know a little place called Hill Street Café. Yelp rates it $$ so plan on spending around $20-25 for your meal. They have brunch. They have mimosas. They have a patio. They. have. Eggs. Benedict! If ya know me ya know... (winky face). Basically, they're awesome! Unfortunately, they are NOT pet friendly. :-/

Lastly, its safe to always assume that there wont be cell service anywhere we meet to hike. We will always wait 10 minutes for stragglers. That being said, we're meeting at 7:30am, I'm heading out to the trail at 7:40am. If you show up after 8am, there is a good chance you'll have to park at the top of the hill, which will add 1+ miles to your hike, in the form of a long, annoying, full sun exposure hill. Its awful, its stupid. Trust me. Please arrive early.

Can't wait to see all you sweaty betties!
