Start: 2025-08-21T08:00:00-07:00
End: 2025-08-21T10:00:00-07:00
Location: Hill Canyon Trailhead

This is a second hike for Thursday and we will start at 8:00. It is going to be hot, but Camarillo often has a little cloud cover early in the morning. If we are done by 10:00 it will not have hit 80 degrees yet! We will start this hike at Santa Rosa Regional Park at the parking area in Hill Canyon, cross the bridge over the runoff creek, and stroll a mile before turning onto the fire road up the Western Plateau. We will continue straight at the crest of the fire road and then turn left on the Plateau Rim loop and finally descend down the Hawk Canyon Trail. There are a lot of trees on the Hawk Canyon trail. The Hawk Canyon Trail connects to Western Plateau Trail back to the parking lot. This is approximately 6 miles with an elevation gain of approximately 1000 feet.
Directions:

From Moorpark Road in the Santa Rosa Valley, drive west on Santa Rosa Road for 3.7 miles, turn left (south) on Hill Canyon Road for about 0.6 miles to the parking lot.

From the 101 Freeway in Camarillo, take exit 52 onto Santa Rosa Road and drive northeast. After 5 miles, turn right onto Hill Canyon Road for about 0.6 miles to the parking lot.
