Hi Mountain Trail - Arroyo Grande California Hikes

The Hi Mountain Trail is a multiuse trail in the Los Padres National Forest east of Lopez Lake. The trail heads up the canyon in a shaded riparian forest parallel to a stream. While climbing out of the canyon, there are several spectacular vistas. The hike returns on an unpaved road, winding through the pastoral oak-dotted hills of the upper Arroyo Grande valley.
