Wilder Ranch State Park

About Wilder Ranch State Park

Formerly a working dairy ranch, the property now preserves its old buildings as a museum reachable from a day-use parking lot. The coastline setting draws hikers, equestrians and mountain bikers along its long trails and ocean views. Dogs are not allowed on the trails, though many routes are open to bikes and horses. To the north, public beaches continue into adjoining Coast Dairies State Park.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
