Upcoming Public Guided Walks
Take this docent led walk through the beautiful Cypress Grove focusing on the scenic grandeur and the diversity of life in Point Lobos. We will talk about the plants, trees, marine mammals, sea life, birds, geology and cultural history of our State Natural Reserve that is described as the “…greatest meeting between land and sea.” The walk is short, and mostly level, with some stairs and a few rocky uneven places to traverse. Come join us!
Join docent Randy for a walk from Whalers Cove to Coal Chute Point and Granite Point, breathtakingly beautiful but relatively little-traveled areas of our Reserve. This is an area where human history and our natural environment are intimately connected, and as we look for birds, animals and flowers, you will also learn about human activities that have come and gone over time.
Take an easy one-mile round trip walk along the Granite Point trail in Whaler’s Cove to learn about the lives of nine extraordinary women whose efforts shaped and preserved this land. During our 1 ½ hour and stroll, we’ll revel in the beauty of the reserve as we celebrate the vision, labor and passion of those in the past who made it all possible.
Join docent Randy for a guided walk around the Cypress Grove trail. We will keep a close eye out for marine mammals, shore birds and other wildlife while appreciating the lush plant life and stunning scenery all around us. Learn how sea otters have come and gone from the central coast, and how our deep marine canyons support the animals you see on the surface.
The walk will include discussions of the cultural history and the natural wonders of Point Lobos.
Between 10am and 12noon, visitors of all abilities are invited to experience our accessible, Sea Lion Point trail. Docents with scopes, binoculars, marine mammal pelts and information will be stationed along the trail for all to go at their own pace. As well as enjoying our beautiful, flat coastal trail, sea lions, harbor seals, sea otters and migrating whales may be seen!
