Wirebreak – Santa Ynez Canyon Loop – Lunch at Spruzzo’s

Join our Facebook group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/hikingwithdean/

I’m timing this hike with the opening of Spruzzo Restaurant in Pacific Palisades. Date may change accordingly.

We begin the hike by traveling south along Santa Ynez Creek, climb a steep ridge to E. Topanga Fireroad, skirt Trippet ranch and return via a descent down into Santa Ynez Canyon. Santa Ynez Canyon features chilly mountain pools, several beautiful waterfalls, and slim sandstone cliffs set in a cool oasis of lush oak and sycamore forests.

Loop is 7.3 miles with total ascent of about 1700′. The No Fire-roads Rule will be in effect!

Hike is rated DIFFICULT due to terrain. See the Hike Ratings Guide at https://www.hikingwithdean.com/hike-rating-guide/

Directions

From PCH: Take Sunset Bl north 0.5 mile to Palisades Dr. Follow Palisades Dr north for 2.4 miles to Ver de la Montura. Turn left for one long block. Park near end of street and meet across the street from signed trailhead.
