Vista Trail

"Very easy to walk the upper trail and a couple picnic tables sprinkled along wonderful views of the ocean and Sonoma coast. The trail is paved but it is overgrown and falling apart in places. Bathroom is a little nicer then a porta-potty but better then nothing. Overall, great place for a picnic or a place to stretch your legs."

"Beautiful trail high above the ocean. Good sized parking lot. Nice views in all directions. This is near the northern end of Sonoma Coast State Park and the view toward the south reveals Goat Rock, Bodega Head, and Point Reyes. Views toward the north and east are beautiful as well. Definitely worth the stop and the 1-mile hike."

"Beautiful views, short but nice walk with paved loops and some single track deer trails.. lots of dog poop bags left all over the place which is annoying."

"Perfect place to take a rest if your are driving a long stretch of CA-1. Nice views and a small walk to watch the ocean and wilderness. If you go in spring you can even see beautiful blooming flowers. Unfortunately it is place prone to be foggy, so it is usually common to see nothing"

"Sensational views of the rugged Pacific coast on clear days. However it can be quite chilly and foggy there anytime of the year. A somewhat hidden trail will take you down to ocean level. The hike up and down is steep and tiring."
