Are you a new volunteer at Laguna Coast Wilderness Park and want to orient yourself and learn more about the trails? Join Laguna Canyon Foundation and OC Parks Volunteers on this moderate hike up Little Sycamore Canyon trail, then returning on Serrano Ridge, Camarillo Canyon, and Stagecoach trails, and heading back to Nix Nature Center. This moderate hike is approximately 5 miles long and has 800 feet of elevation gain, and includes views of the beautiful rock formations in the Canyon, the expanse of the South Coast Wilderness, and surrounding features. The hike’s leaders will also point out and discuss the other trails that can be accessed from this route and will use maps for orientation and guidance. This event is intended for new Laguna Coast Wilderness Park volunteers, especially those volunteering at Nix Nature Center, with the goal of having them become more familiar with the trails, map, and features of the park for their own knowledge and to be better prepared to answer visitors’ questions.
