Tip: McGrath Farm has a year-round U-pick garden and in March and April they are always looking for volunteers for harvest if you want a truly organic experience.
Hike Point Mugu State Park & The Chumash Trail
The Santa Monica mountains span from the Hollywood Hills to Camarillo, with Point Mugu State Park as the grand finale. We drove through Camarillo’s veggie farms to the Pacific Coast Highway and reached the popular Chumash Trail. Hiking switchbacks up through cactus groves and vista points to the sea, we reached a stunning valley. Another short and steep climb led us to Point Mugu Peak for sweeping ocean views and jagged mountains that I couldn’t believe were in my home range! With a 2.5-mile round-trip hike, this is the fastest and most rewarding way to enjoy the state park. To dive deeper, continue along the ridge to the La Jolla Valley Loop Trail through the Natural Preserve.
