Wilder Ranch, Santa Cruz

It was another awesome weekend on the central coast! We went to one of my favorite places, Wilder Ranch in Santa Cruz. John and I used to ride out there quite a bit before we got married and moved to Monterey.

Here's what the state park website has to say about it:

The park has 34 miles of hiking, biking and equestrian trails winding through coastal terraces and valleys. Several restored buildings once belonging to the Wilder family are preserved. The park has tours and living history demonstrations to help visitors explore the history of early ranchers and farmers along the Central Coast. The site was originally the main rancho supplying Santa Cruz Mission. It later became a successful and innovative dairy ranch. Surrounding grounds include Victorian homes, gardens, and historic adobe.
