Upcoming Public Guided Walks at Point Lobos State Natural Reserve
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!
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 me on this walk along our Cypress Grove trail. We will traverse five habitats, seeing wildflowers, the strange trentepohlia, marine birdlife and the Pacific waves crashing along our shore. Perhaps we will spot some whales, seals or sea otters. This is one of our most treasured walks.
Please come join me as we investigate the beautiful Cypress Grove, the very heart of Point Lobos State Natural Reserve. We will explore all 6 habitats at the Reserve, and hopefully see the wildlife that abounds here. Just last weekend, we saw Grey Whales, Otters, Harbor Seals and Sea Lions, along with the many plants. We can also explore the geology that is unique to our Reserve.
The walk will include discussions of the cultural history and the natural wonders of Point Lobos.

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.
