Nearest phone is in the City of Moorpark about 5 minutes away. Plan on letting out some air in the tires for better traction going UP into the canyon. Coming back down, you can inflat the tires for a faster ride. Keep an eye open for hawks, lots of them circling around in the open grasslands section of the park. 49 year old that loves to ride.
Dirt road is very gradual into mouth of canyon.
Most the trail is open grasslands until you enter the canyon. The canyon can be sandy in summer, but nice in spring and fall. The canyon is a scenic oak lined dirt road that continues for a great ride for about 4 miles. Stay on main dirt road and do not try side roads to oil drilling areas. A great early morning or early evening ride.
