Reyes Peak Trail Description
The Reyes Peak Hike is a family-friendly adventure in the Los Padres National Forest that will not disappoint. This epic excursion up to the summit of Reyes Peak offers unrivaled views of the coastal Californian landscape. Hike through Douglas firs, chaparrals, and granite gardens up to the summit. The terrain is rocky and exposed, so plenty of water, SPF, and a pair of sturdy footwear is necessary. Note that the road to the trailhead is subject to seasonal closure.
The Reyes Peak Hike departs from the trailhead off Pine Mountain Ridge Road. From here, you will be guided east through tree stands and chaparral brush. Be mindful of your footing as you climb up the rocky ridge and you will soon reach the summit of Reyes Peak.
From atop the mountain, you will be granted 360-degree panoramas of the encompassing landscape. Admire the beauty of the mountainous terrain, the Pacific Ocean, and on a clear day—the Channel Islands.
