What a fantastic hike. Beautiful weather beautiful views. We did a 6 mile hike with my friends. It was super fun. Not too hard only ~650ft of elevation change. Dog friendly but for some parts I'd recommend a leash.

Nice family friendly hike! People are very helpful and eager to show you the trails and vista points! I would recommend to hike here early in the morning since you are out in the open for the most part! Mountain bikes are ok but e-bikes are NOT allowed on the trails! Pets are allowed on a leash! Bring plenty of water for you and your pooch!

Lots of mountain biking trials. We did a walking trail with the littles. Beautiful views and weather that day! If you have not had a chance to get out and explore here, take the time to do it. Parking lot and facilities are well kept and clean.

Lots of good trails. More challenging on warmer sunny days. The views are stunning. We had to park below the freeway and walk to the trail so be prepared. Also no ebikes or peddal assistance

Cool hiking area with great views! Didn't go too deep into the area as we came here just for some quick pictures of pismo area but it was a treat, plenty of parking that was mostly full when we came. Have a backup plan if you come during a busy time of the year just in case there is no parking at all Make sure to bring water also!

Beautiful views and an abundance of well-maintained trails. It was busy, but not crowded. Watch out for horse & cow piles on the lower parts of trails, and there are signs regarding rattlesnakes & ticks, so stick to the trails.

Horse people beware. Our group made reservations 2 weeks in advance and emailed several times to be sure we had spots for our planned ride with three horse trailers loaded with 5 horses. We even stopped at Office Depot to print one of our reservations when we realized one was missing because we read on their website that if you park without a reservation a boot will be placed on your tire. Upon arrival the attendant, CJ, walked up and told us, "I don't have spots for you". Wow! Did not ask to see our reservations. Those were the first words out of her mouth. I responded that we had reservations. She said that the spots were already taken. Which we could clearly see. My response was that we will wait for her to put the boot on the tires. We had a long drive and horse trailer trouble to solve and horses that wanted out. She said she had no idea about a boot and proceeded to tell me she could call the police but that would take at least an hour so we should find another place to ride. I was in disbelief and expressed it. Her response was that it is just a trail ride. Again wow. Then CJ said I was being being mean and she couldn't deal with me. Really? You know what's mean? My bets on allowing five ladies, who very rarely get away, research amazing rides for our trip from OC and Tehachapi, load up five horses and haul all the way here only to discover they don't actually check reservations. It seems to me that the folks running this treat it as their own private trail system. Old reservations were on the dash of both trucks made in the name of the lady on the horse photos we saw on the web, Beverly Poorman. More like Beverly PoorManners. Moral of the story; unless your connected don't waste your time and certainly don't expect upstanding horse people courtesy.

Stumbled into this place on the Fourth of July when parking cost $60 downtown. Perfect place to watch the fireworks! There are restrooms and picnic tables with a clear view of the bay.

Great places to hike with various paths to choose from. Not feeling up for a serious challenge? You can select one of the more moderate trails, prepping for a steep hike? Choose one of the more challenging trails and get your groove back! Amazing views coupled with well maintain trails!

Awesome views! Challenging as well as leisurely hikes. Parking is scarce at times, and they close the gates for your car to leave at dusk. I've been told they will lock your car in and you have to phone a friend to get home! Well worth the visit though!

Huge thanks to the former landowner for entrusting this chunk of property to the consevancy and to the people who put this together. I love riding and these trails are a great addition to the few in the area. Thank you for your generosity.

Such a great place to hike/bike/take your dog on leash. Can be very popular and if you drive here and try to park- could be full. I lucked out and had a parking spot.

Beautiful vistas and a nice hiking loop! Not too crowded although the parking lot was full. The 101 traffic was a little noisy but at first but goes away the farther out you get.

Came late in the day so didn’t have much time to explore. Be aware that they do close the gate to the parking lot, no fine/ticket but your car will be stuck until morning. It’s operated by volunteers. The views are amazing, even from the parking lot. Would love to make it back to explore some of the other trails. Pismo beach and a bunch of shops are just down the road, that was nice to hit up afterward.

This place can be easy moderate and tuff depending on how far you want to go . But at anytime you stop and look around the views are breathtaking you can watch the sunset the pier or simply the fantastic view of the pacific.

We hiked up High Road (which is part of the trail, not an actual road you drive on) and then the Panhandle trail. Trails were well maintained, signs clearly indicate which way the path continues at intersections, and the view was beautiful. Saw a few lizards and a snake. First-time visitor, I was nervous about mountain bikers not being able to see us / run us off the path, but that ended up not being an issue at all. There are bells for the bikers to borrow so they can also be heard. There's enough room to step to the side to let them pass. The parking lot was a decent size, but I could see it being filled on a weekend at peak hours. We went on a Friday around noon, and there were only a few spots open. Bathrooms were very clean, the water fountain was operational and clean, and the park map was accurate and clear. It's a beautiful spot to visit- if I was a local I would frequent this preserve. It's dog friendly and many people were hiking/ walking with their furry companions

Great place to ride, very Flowey trails . I was out there yesterday and I was on peekaboo trail loop ..we found some homeless guy in the bushes laying down and there was a lady walking behind us so we looped around to make sure she was all right. Try not to walk alone ladies!!

Good place to hike. When you get up top, there's a beautiful view of Pismo beach and city. There are a couple trails with different distance, making it good fit for any activities level. Many sections of the trails have good shades and benches for resting. Will encounter hikers and mountain bikers. Dogs friendly (please keep dogs on leash, safety for dogs and humans alike). Occasionally, there will be horseback riders as well.

I had held off going out here due to crowds, then COVID. However, after being invited by a friend I made the trip and was astounded by how fun the trails were. Flowy and smooth. Fast and sticky, with out-of-the-blue fantastic ocean views. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Positive Ride is now partnered with the Land Conservancy to provide access to those with mobility needs. We adapt manual wheel chairs to off road, trail capable units. Reach out to to us!!!

Such a beautiful and peaceful place to be, even with the cars driving up and down the beach. If you have little ones it's a bit nerve racking because you have to make sure you look out for cars for them. On the hill where the reserve is, they're safe to play. However, the drops are steep if they're not careful they could stumble and fall the wrong way. My 5 year old was rolling down those hills super easy. Yet I was nervous because if he stepped in the wrong direction he could have fell on a drop. The vegetation didn't bother him, but it hides the falls. Other than that it was a beautiful place and nice to walk through and come back to the beach
