Reagan Ranch

This is a great place to start a fun hike in the Santa Monica National Park! There is a great viewpoint if you follow the Outlook Trail to the Summit for the Lake Vista of Malibu Lake. It is about 1.5 miles to the top, for a total of about 3 miles. I would recommend coming here in the evening or on a cool day as there is not much shade and it can get quite sunny. You can also keep going along the Outlook Trail, which takes you to another viewpoint and even to the MASH set site. There is also an informational plaque about the history of the area.

It is just another Ranch, the only thing is that you can get some open blue sky and a background, so you can be creative if you want to be.
I went there to just take few clicks.

From 1951 to 1966, Ronald Reagan and his family spent many weekends at their 357 acre ranch, a thoroughbred horse farm dubbed “Yearling Row” (hence “Yearling Trail” there now).
Reagan was very popular with Malibou Lake residents when he was a local and frequented Sam Perkins' general store that used to be across the street from his main gate.The future California Governor and U.S. President was an accomplished horseman and enjoyed jumping gates on his property. This Reagan Ranch was the second of three that existed in his lifetime. The first was in Northridge and the most famous ranch - his presidential retreat - was near Santa Barbara. Remaining on the park property today are the original stables, swimming pool and large outdoor barbeque.
As a nod to history, California State Parks has drawn up plans for an equestrian center with trailer parking and campsites for the western end of the ranch.

Super beautiful paved path that eventually turns into trail heads! I love the sunset walks here, very easy!
