This trail has a 100-foot elevation gain in ¼ miles on a dirt path—it is not recommended if you have mobility issues. We will spend most of the morning on the California Trail in the Oak and Madrone forest and the Spring Creek Trail through the Redwoods.
The California trail is over dirt paths with a slight incline and is one mile long. The Spring Creek trail is ½ mile on a narrow dirt track that has a 100-foot elevation gain. There are three restrooms along the walk. There is a possibility of seeing up to 45 bird species, 33 of which are year-round residents.
You will need to register on Eventbrite and then go to the Filoli website to purchase a ticket for the day: https://filoli.org. The cost for an all-day ticket to Filoli is $34/ adult, $32/senior, $24/ student, teacher, or military, and free for Filoli members. Bring lunch or enjoy the café and spend the rest of the afternoon exploring the estate.
