Chumash - Las Llajas Loop

Join us in Simi Valley among spectacular sandstone outcroppings and boulders, sweeping vistas and a wide assortment of wildflowers standing out among the greenery.

Our counterclockwise hike will begin on the Chumash Trail going east and then continue north along Rocky Peak Rd. with views of Simi Valley, San Fernando Vally and Channel Islands on a clear day. Watch for the rare Catalina mariposa lily, marine fossils and an earthquake fault as we near the crest. We then head south via the Las Llajas trail along a nice little creek and an occasional cluster of oaks.

This is a 10 mile hike with about 1400 ft elevation gain. No beginners
