Wilder Ranch EASY hike

Join us for a refreshing and easy coastal hike at Wilder Ranch State Park, just north of Santa Cruz!

We’ll be walking a 2.5 mile loop along mostly flat, well-maintained trails. This is a relaxed-paced, social-friendly hike—ideal for chatting, connecting, and enjoying nature!

What to bring:

Comfortable walking shoes

Layers (it can get breezy)

Water and snacks

Optional: hat, sunscreen, camera

We’ll meet in the main parking lot by the bathrooms at 10am. Parking is $10, or free with a California State Parks pass. After the hike, we can hang out for a bit near the historic ranch area or grab a bite in town if folks are interested.

Hope to see you there!
