Name: Annual Quail Hollow Ranch Holiday Hike!
Start: 2024-12-21T09:30:00-08:00
End: 2024-12-21T12:00:00-08:00

It's time for our 11th annual pre-holidays hike at Quail Hollow Ranch!
I know we haven’t been doing much hiking lately but this is a tradition so let’s make it happen :-)
This is one of our shorter hikes so everyone can get to other holiday plans/events afterward during this busy time of year.

When you arrive, just drive in the entry road which will lead you to the parking area next to the historic main house. This was the former home of Sunset Magazine's publisher Laurence Lane; after the hike we can go into the Visitor's Center and see a bit of the ranch's history if it is open.

**Directions to Quail Hollow:**

Heads Up - this is not your typical park entrance that is well signed; it looks more like a nondescript ranch entrance and is easy to drive by, so pay close attention once you're on Quail Hollow Road.

From Santa Cruz: Take Graham Hill Road toward Felton. After passing over the railroad tracks by Roaring Camp, make a right onto E. Zayante Road. Go approximately 2 miles and make a left onto Quail Hollow Road. Travel approximately 0.7 miles until the park entrance appears on the right.

From San Jose/Scotts Valley: From Hwy 17, take Mt. Hermon Road until it dead-ends on Graham Hill Road. Turn left on Graham Hill toward Santa Cruz. At the first light, which is E. Zayante Road, turn left. Go approximately 2 miles and make a left onto Quail Hollow Road. Travel approximately 0.7 miles until the park entrance appears on the right.

From Felton: The park can be accessed 2 ways. Follow Graham Hill Road toward Santa Cruz to E. Zayante Road. Make a left and continue approximately 2 miles before making a left onto Quail Hollow Road. The park entrance will be about 0.7 miles up Quail Hollow Road on the right hand side.

OR (also from Felton)

Take Highway 9 toward Ben Lomond. Approximately 1.8 miles from the main light in Felton turn right at the light on Glen Arbor Road. Follow the road about ½ mile until the road makes a “Y” (just past a stop sign). Stay to the right – the Loch Lomond sign will point the way. From the “Y” travel approximately 1.3 miles on Quail Hollow Road. The park entrance will be on the left.

From Boulder Creek or Ben Lomond: Take Highway 9 to Ben Lomond. At the stoplight, turn left onto Glen Arbor Road. Go approximately 1 mile and turn left twice to get onto Quail Hollow Road. (Follow the Loch Lomond signs.) Go approximately 1.3 miles and turn left at the Quail Hollow Ranch park entrance.
