This month, join us to discover the wild side of Orange County. Though this is the third-most populous county in the state, it’s home to some of the most beautiful protected wilderness areas in the entire country.
Come explore with a free hike or equestrian ride hosted by OCTA and made possible by OC Go, Orange County’s half-cent sales tax for transportation improvements.
On September 17, the one-hour hike will take place at the Wren's View Preserve, a 116-acre parcel located northwest of the City of Rancho Santa Margarita in Trabuco Canyon, and immediately north of O’Neill Regional Park and Trabuco Creek.
On September 18, join us for an equestrian ride at Trabuco Rose Preserve, a 396-acre parcel located northwest of the City of Rancho Santa Margarita in Trabuco Canyon. It’s bordered by the Cleveland National Forest to the north and Trabuco Creek to the south, while Hickey Creek drains the western side. The Preserve features rolling terrain with elevations ranging from 1,120 to 1,650 feet above mean sea level. Participants must bring their own horses.
Registration is required for both events. Register, learn more about OCTA’s preservation efforts, and get answers to your questions here.
