POSTING ON BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA STATE DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION
Santa Susana Pass State Historic Park First Day Hike on New Year's Day, Sunday, January 1, 2025, 11:00-1:00

Start 2025 off on the right foot with a New Year's Hike! Hikes of varying distance and difficulty are offered, including:

Welcome Walk - Slow and Gentle (the most moderate; 1.5 miles)
Welcome Walk (moderate; 1.5 miles)
Stagecoach Trail (difficult; 2.0 miles)
Waterfall Trail (the most difficult; 2.0 miles)

The Andora Trailhead is just south of the Oakwood Cemetery in Chatsworth. 9955 Andora, Chatsworth, CA 91311 Look for the opening in the fence and the brown State Park kiosk. Park on the street. DO NOT follow the online directions to the State Park because it will take you to a different entrance.

Wear sunscreen and long pants because the brush is thick and sticky. A light jacket or long-sleeved shirt is also recommended. Although we try to avoid poison oak, sometimes it is encountered. Wear sturdy hiking boots. A walking stick is preferred by some hikers. Bring plenty of water. A hat is also recommended.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome as long as they are on leash. Please remember to bring enough water for your four-legged friend. All minors must be accompanied by an adult.

Temperatures above 90 degrees, rain or red flag warning cancels.
