Let's take advantage of a gorgeous day in Malibu Sunday and hike Solstice Canyon with lunch by the beach!
Solstice Canyon is the quintessential coastal canyon. The year-round stream provides ample water to support this 550-acre park's numerous plant communities and a diverse wildlife population.There is a 30 ft water fall and some ruins that are fun to explore. We will hike the Rising Sun, Sostomo, and Deer Valley trails. We'll take a snack break at the waterfall and Roberts house ruins
