Historic Stagecoach Trail Hike

Difficulty level: Difficult
Length: 2.0 miles
Hike Leader: Michelle

This is a difficult hike due to uneven terrain and steep slopes. A walking stick or trekking poles are recommended.

Meet at the Lilac Lane trailhead, 7700 Lilac Lane, Simi Valley, 93063. How to get to the Lilac Lane entrance to the Santa Susana Pass State Historic Park (SSPSHP): Coming from the San Fernando Valley, take the 118 to the Rocky Peak exit, turn left and cross the freeway to Santa Susana Pass Road. Turn right and look for Lilac Lane where you can only turn left. From Simi Valley, take the 118 to the Rocky Peak exit, turn right and cross the freeway to Santa Susana Pass Road.

Lilac Lane is a very small street! A brown kiosk is on the left with a dirt parking lot area (Do not park on the street!)

Wear sunscreen and long pants because the brush is thick and sticky. A light jacket or long-sleeved shirt is also recommended. Although we try to avoid poison oak, sometimes it is encountered. Wear sturdy hiking boots. A walking stick is preferred by some hikers. Bring plenty of water. A hat is also recommended.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome as long as they are on leash. Please remember to bring enough water for your four-legged friend. All minors must be accompanied by an adult.

Temperatures above 90 degrees, rain, red flag warnings, and dense fog cancel.
