Soberanes Canyon Trail

This is a much cooler trail since you get the shade from the redwood trees. Plus, this is also the start of the loop that connects with Rocky Ridge trail. In my own opinion, doing the loop is much harder than going up and down the front side. The trail is a lot steeper but the big benefit is more wildflowers( see Rocky Ridge; pages 5 and 6.)

This is part of the Garrapata State Park.
