Join us Thursday afternoon for a social hike at Ellwood Mesa Open Space!

Time: 2:45 - 5:00. The hike will likely not fill the full slot until 5 PM, giving attendees ample time to return to their rooms and prepare for Thursday's dinner.

Distance: 2-3 miles

Elevation Gain: 150ft

Hike Time: 1-2 hours

About the hike: The hiking path is a popular nature trail with wide, sandy walking paths. This hike will proceed at a social pace along the bluffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

What to bring: Guests are encouraged to wear sturdy shoes. Tennis and other athletic-style shoes are adequate. A hat and other sun protection are highly recommended as the trail has limited shade. 

Due to limited parking availability, shuttle pick-up and drop-off are strongly encouraged.
