About This Event

Solstice Canyon is the quintessential coastal canyon. The year-round stream provides ample water to support this 550-acre park's numerous plant communities and a diverse wildlife population.There is a 30 ft water fall and some ruins that are fun to explore. We will hike the Rising Sun, Sosotmo, and Deer Valley trails. See the Brochure and Trail Map in Files section.

Note: Solstice Canyon Park re-opened June 20th affter being closed for rehab since the Malibu fire.

This is a moderate-to-strenuous 6.5-mile hike with 1100 ft elevation gain. Bring at least one quart water, sunscreen, hat, snacks. Sturdy tennis shoes OK.

We'll do lunch at the Malibu Seafood Cafe after the hike
