Good of you have pass for parks, nice walk through ranch and on cliffs, smooth walking, lots of critters to see.

Heading north on Hwy 1, Wilder Ranch SP is about 10 mins past the Natural Bridges SP. There is an honor $10 parking/entrance fee (you put $10 in an envelope and place into a box; fill out a tag to put on your dash). State park employees patrol the parking lot. A clean bathroom (flush toilets) & water fountain @... More

This is a family favorite. Bring a mountain or cross bike and you can ride along the cliff tops looking out towards the sea about 5 miles in "each direction".

We went to the park when they had a demonstration of the farm. It was EXCELLANT. People were dressed up in the period dress, they explained how the ranch was run. I was particularly interested in the 'Pelter Water Wheel' that was used to generate electricity and how it was used by the blacksmith.

This is a beautiful park. However DO NOT follow Google Maps directions to the entrance. They are wrong, and you'll end up on a very narrow, one lane private road six miles out of your way. Especially bad news if you're in an RV, or pulling a horse trailer , as turning around at the end in the residents driveway... More
