Ventura County lies along the Pacific Coast between Los Angeles County and Santa Barbara County. The area has a Mediterranean-like climate, ideal for hiking year round. The county’s diverse topography includes national forest land, wilderness areas, mountain ranges, and over 50 miles of coastline. Miles of hiking trails weave through the open spaces, parks, forests, and mountain ranges that together form an ecological corridor. In addition, a network of trails are accessible from the metropolitan areas, where the open spaces have been thoughtfully integrated with the development.
