Hike the Oak Woodlands at Ridgewood Ranch with the Mendocino Land Trust

Ridgewood Ranch may be known as the retirement home of Seabiscuit the legendary racehorse or as the farmer capital of Mendocino County since Ecology Action, Grange School of Adaptive Agriculture, Tequio Farms, and the New Agrarian Collective all call Ridgewood Ranch home. The Mendocino Land Trust invites you to see another side of this stunning property on foot. You'll hike through oak woodlands and a fire scarred landscape to a viewpoint overlooking Walker Valley. This area burned during the Redwood Fire last fall and is preserved by a conservation easement with the Mendocino Land Trust. During the hike you will learn about future fire restoration plans. This will be a 5 mile hike, with 700 feet of elevation gain. RSVP required – (707) 962-0470 or admin@mendocinolandtrust.org – They will give you detailed parking directions when you secure your spot. Bring a lunch to eat when you stop at the overlook. FREE
