- From the 101, take the Wendy Drive exit and go south. Stay on Wendy all the way to the end and park in the dirt parking lot.
The Los Robles Trail in Newbury Park is an alternate route to Angel Vista but we are not going that far. When we reach what I call "the roundabout" we will turn back. The toughest section of the hike is an incline of 250' at the beginning, then is levels out with the usual ups and downs.
