SUMMARY:Serra Cross Park at Grant Park ~ Gentler Intermediate
DESCRIPTION:This hike will start at Brakey Rd (which is parallel with the Ventura Botanical Gardens) near the parking lot. Then\, we will gradually hike up to the top of the hill behind the Sierra Cross at Grant Park\, which sits above Ventura (just above City Hall). Then\, we’ll hike down to the Sierra Cross and zigzag down to Poli St. and back to our cars. \nHere you have nothing\, and everything — the whisper of eucalyptus trees\, and one of the finest panoramic seascape sunset views in the world. Below you the buildings of a toy town\, and beyond\, the Pacific\, broken only by the rise of Anacapa and Santa Cruz Islands. Some views just plain make you glad you’re here. No place better for a sunset.\nhttps://visitventuraca.com/business/serra-cross-park-at-grant-park/ \nIt’s about 5 miles with approximately 600’ elevation gain/loss \nDirection:\nFrom 101 northbound\, exit on California St. Use the right lane to turn right onto E Thompson and turn left onto S Chestnut St. Then\, turn left on Poli St.\, then make an immediate left into the parking lot behind City Hall.\nFrom 101 southbound\, exit on Ventura Avenue. Turn right onto Thompson Blvd. and drive to S Chestnut St. Then\, turn left on Poli St.\, then make an immediate left into the parking lot behind City Hall. \nPlease review the guidelines (link to the guidelines) to join our hikes.\nRestrictions apply for your safety and ours: \n\nDon’t show up unless you’re shown on the “Attending” list.\nPlan on completing the entire hike at a moderate pace.\n\nDISCLAIMER/RELEASE OF LIABILITY – PLEASE READ IN ITS ENTIRETY \nThe hike host is a volunteer and not responsible for the group. Safety should be a priority for everyone in the group. Please treat this meet-up as hiking with a group of friends.
