Walking/Hiking

Back to Things to Do

Elkhorn Slough Visitor Center -

The Reserve- 5 miles of hiking trails that wonder through a variety of habitats from oak woodlands to mudflats explored through bridges. 

Moss Landing Wildlife Area - Located North of Moss Landing, on the East side of Highway 1. There lies a short, easy trail adjacent to the main channel of the Slough. A great location to watch sea otters, harbor seals and migrating birds. 

Kirby Park - A Slough-side boardwalk that is the only wheelchair (and stroller) accessible trail at the Slough. 

Slow Adventures' Walk the Bay - Walk the whole Monterey Bay on this self-guided inn-to-inn walking tour. Enjoy scenic harbors, coastal bluffs, quaint villages, river crossings, beautiful beaches and an abundance of marine life. Resting nightly in comfortable coastal lodges, we are the Bed & Breakfast for day #3 of the slow adventure walk. 

We are also within close driving distance to the numerous county and state parks of Monterey County.
