Upcoming Public Guided Walks at Point Lobos State Natural Reserve
The walk will include discussions of the cultural history and the natural wonders of Point Lobos.
Take this docent led walk through the famous Cypress Grove out to Pinnacle Point 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.” This beautiful walk is short, and mostly level, with a few stairs and rocky places to traverse. Come join us!
Join docent Randy for a one hour walk around whalers cove to Coal Chute Point and Granite Point, breathtakingly beautiful in a relatively less-traveled area of our Reserve. This is an area where human history and our natural environment are intimately connected, and as we look for birds, animals,trees and flowers, you will also learn about human activities that have come and gone over time.
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!
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.
