Zuma Loop, Ocean and Canyon View Trails ~ Gentler Intermediate

I pre-hiked the trail this morning. The name “Zuma” is derived from the Chumash language and means “abundance.” There is an absolute abundance of beautiful and spectacular wildflowers engulfing the entire area and it appears that there was no impact from the Woolsey fire other than a few remnants of burnt trees.

We will start to hike the Zuma Loop trail and continue on to Ocean View trail. Then, we descend down the Canyon View trail to the parking lot.
This hike is five miles with an elevation gain/loss of approximate 1000-1200 feet.

Directions:
From Santa Monica, Thousand Oaks, and the San Fernando Valley, drive west on Pacific Coast Highway somewhat less than a mile past Kanan, and turn right (north) on Bonsall Drive. Continue north into the dirt lot at the end.

From Oxnard and points north and west, turn left on Bonsall to the end. If you get to Kanan, you’ve gone too far!

Please review the guidelines (https://www.meetup.com/The-Weekday-Trailblazers/about/) to join our hikes.
Restrictions apply for your safety and ours:

  • Don’t show up unless you’re shown on the “Attending” list.
  • Plan on KEEPING UP with the group and completing the entire hike at a moderate pace, or please find an alternative hike that better suits your hiking level.
  • No “Plus Ones” or dogs on Weekday Trailblazer hikes.
