Ventura Land Trust has opened up a new trail in Ventura, just above the high school where the trail work has been going on for four years and it’s finally open. The hike is similar to the Ray Miller Trail, i.e. It is 6 miles out and back. Right now it is a beautiful hike with lots of wildflowers and the views are beautiful. I could not find any limitation on number of attendees, but another leader usually limits it to 10 people so I am limiting it to 15 until we learn more. We start off at the parking lot at the end of Hall Canyon Road and hike up to the communication tower and then back.
Take the 101 Ventura and exit Seward. Go north (away from the ocean). Go past Thompson and Main St. to Poli. Take a left on Poli and almost immediately make a sharp right turn onto Hall Canyon Road. Stay on Hall Canyon Road (do not turn on Fairview or Sunset) and Hall Canyon turns into a street that has some traffic bumps, follow that for less than quarter mile to the parking lot.
Please review the guidelines (link to the guidelines) to join our hikes.
Restrictions apply for your safety and ours:
