Ventura County Trail And Beach Hikers | Meetup
About us
My name is Mary Veve Arbuckle.
Hike To Be Present Is my feeling.
We are our best selves when we are hiking. It is in the exercise of movement along the trails of the outdoors that we can welcome friends and members of our community to find themselves, both literally and figuratively.
I will post hikes that range from 2-6 miles 2-3 times a week with my assistant leaders helping out. All ages are welcomed! Let’s enjoy our beautiful mountains and beaches.
Let’s support each other in our fitness goals! MOTION IS LOTION FOR YOUR BODY AND MIND! We do super low impact to strenuous hikes please check each hike for the ratings of the same! I hope to have a few Event Organizers to help me with this group. It allows me to feature several levels of difficulty.
Using hiking sticks helps you get a better workout: https://youtu.be/7q2YwOE4okA

Birdwatching, Wildlife and Beach View 3 Mile Easy Hike
Sun, Sep 20 · 10:00 AM PDT
1400 Angler Ct, Ventura, CA, US
Don’t let the chain link fence keep you from exploring this wonderland; the gate off of Angler Court is unlocked daily between 9am and 5pm. DOGS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON THE TRAIL!!!
We will go around the ponds 3 times. Bring binoculars to see the Wildlife closer. Sandy pathways loop around the freshwater ponds, flanked by mature vegetation that creates ideal vignettes through which to gaze at the over 200 species of birds. You’ll lose all sense of time watching the herons on the island in the middle of one of the ponds, a huddle of cloaked hunchbacks. The far end of the Reserve meets the beach dunes, with fantastic views across the ocean to the Anacapa Island.** DIRECTIONS free street parking. We will hike around the ponds and try to stretch it to 4 miles!!! Help others by just hiking 👇👇 Here's a link to walk for the Charity of your choice: http://charitymiles.org/ 8 attendees
