Join me for a nature walk at the Olive Grove Trail, located at the Santa Inés Mission Mills to celebrate Healthy People Healthy Trails Month! This wonderful event is in partnership with the Santa Barbara County Trails Council, Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation and California State Parks.
We will meet at the Olive Grove Trailhead and hike along a one-mile loop through a grove of 2,400 olive trees situated in the 95-acre Mission Santa Inés National Historic Landmark District. In addition to enjoying the stunning views of the Santa Ynez Mountains and a number of historical landmarks, we will be guided through the grove by a member of the Santa Barbara Trust for Historic Preservation to enrich our hiking experience.

On our route, we will pass by the grist and fulling mills, Alamo Pintado Creek and the Old Mission Santa Inés. We will hike the entire one-mile loop, stopping intermittently to discuss the historical sites, appreciate the beauty of the Valley and connect with one another.
