To access Peter Canyon Park and not have to pay a $4 or 5 Park in the residential area in Cowan Heights off of Overhill Drive you can find that if you if you follow Cowan Heights Drive off of Newport Ave it runs into Overhill Dr to follow that road down and you'll see a clearing on the opposite of the housing track where you can park, don't worry about getting lost all the streets is loop around and you'll be able to get out. And there's a few other point that you can park at just look on Google maps in the residential area.

I never considered Dog Beach a trail, but I suppose you could. You can pretty much walk from Sunset Beach all the way to the Santa Ana River Jetty if you wanted to, all along the beach, or on a paved path. One of the reasons to love that area! All your hikes are pretty easy, and great for beginners, who want to try hiking. Nice video!

So many to choose from Start at the top of Ridge Park in Newport Coast. There is a park there with a restroom and water. Three options: 1. Hike the outside trails of Crystal Cove State Park. 1. Hike Bommer Canyon Ridge down Boat Road all the way to the end and get to Guna Peak to the bench and map - one of the best over looks of Laguna Beach. You can also get there by starting in Laguna Beach and going to the of Dartmoor. Go up the fireroad and make a left to the end. 3. Hike down Bommer Ridge and go down Willow Canyon. You get to the bottom and get to the ranger station and make a left and go up Laurel and then up Lizard. Both Laurel and Lizard are good trails for OC. Lizard takes you back up to Bommer Ridge and not too far from the top of Ridge Park.
@jimwaxer81663 жыл бұрын
Another option is to Start at Nix Nature Center in Laguna Canyon and there are two popular options. 1) Go under the tunnel that goes under Laguna Canyon and go left and go past Barbara Lake, which I think is the only natural lake in Orange County. This is James Dilley Park. You can explore the trails in there. It isn't that big of a park. 2) Take Stage Coach to Camarillo or the better option is to go all the way to Laural Canyon and go up it and then right and up to Serrano Ridge. Take a right on Serrano Ridge and go toward Irvine. Take Sycamore Canyon back to the Nix Nature Center. It is a nice loop.
@jimwaxer81663 жыл бұрын
For a more mellow hike you can check out the San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary. It is one of the best bird watching and bird photo places in Southern California. It isn't that big of a park with one part with lots of ponds and the other half with trees which are nice for the summer since they provide shade. If you want to extend the hike you can hike down the dirt side of the San Diego Creek to the Back Bay. The park entrance is at University and Campus. Huell Howser went there for one of his episodes. You may be able to find it online before you go. The park is also known as the Duck Ponds.

at 1:10 you said no dogs are allowed but I've lived in hb 60 years and go there 3 times a week with my dog, everyone has dogs, and off leash too. I mean maybe there might be some sign somewhere that we all purposely missed seeing but bring your dogs people, they will love it. Oh, but if you have one of those little dogs yeah keep it on the leash, well make sure your dog will listen and stay by you if off leash because those coyotes will send a pup out to lure it behind a bush where the pack will make a quick meal of it so make sure your dog can handle itself. Also there are a lot of skunks, so if your dog don't listen and likes to chase things then you might be driving home with the windows rolled down. By the way, don't stick to the trails so much, that's more for the tourists, there are some fenced off areas you can't go, but plenty of places that kinda look like you can't go, but if the gate is broken and the trail there is well worn then it's most likely a trail locals use. Check out on a map the bike jumps near the end of bolsa chice st (that's where you should park), it used to go off till they took the farmers field out and they couldn't pump water from the channel thru his irrigation pipes and the dudes lost their water source to make the jumps, man those guys were really good. And dog beach is right across pch, but hb is lame that it has never made a safe way to cross right there, really lame, but hey jaywalking isn't against the law anymore and no cop was ever gonna jack you up anyway so play frogger and look for a hole in the fence on the beach side

Its best not to go alone at Whiting Ranch due to mountain lions. Dont even think about going alone at night. Thats just asking for trouble. Black Star canyon offers the best view of Orange County if the day is clear. Its about 15 miles both ways. Takes about 5 to 6 hours depending how far you go. And how many times you stop. Again dont go alone at night. Its supposed to be haunted. Mountain lions are up there as well. Reports of weird stuff from clans members go on at night. Not sure if that is true though.

As a resident of Black Star we have been overwhelmed with visitors since videos like these have been posted. It would be considerate if posters could mention that the ppl who live here came 👉to get away from society👈 and when visiting they could remember their manors by: cleaning up your trash, don't leave bags of your dog s**t for us locals to clean up for you, not hollering at each other as the canyon echoes & SLOW THE F**K DOWN!!!! Speed limit is 25! Mountain bikers, dirt bikers, you guys just suck. So rude & arrogant. Leave your speakers in the car please, you're in nature, if you need music & can't pick up your trash please go hang out at landfills. Respectful hikers are always a pleasure and welcome. They seem to be the only ones who come for nature & respect the environment. Bottom line, MANORS PLEASE. Thank you.

I think you concerns are comments are well founded and hopefully any interested parties will read this post! Simple manners is what seems to be sorely lacking. Thank you for posting.

These hikes look nice but San Diego County has OC beat when it comes to hiking. By a large margin
