Wilder Ranch State Park

Wilder Ranch State Park Review

In the Cultural Preserve of Wilder Ranch State Park you can visit the homes, barns, workshops, and bunkhouse of a 19th-century dairy farm. Nature has reclaimed most of the ranch land, and native plants and wildlife have returned to the 7,000 acres of forest, grassland, canyons, estuaries, and beaches. Hike, bike, or ride horseback on miles of ocean-view trails.
