About Point Reyes National Seashore
Discover the breathtaking beauty of Point Reyes National Seashore, a coastal paradise located near Point Reyes Station, California! This stunning park offers a diverse range of hiking trails, including the popular Alamere Falls Vista via Coast Trail. This 8.8-mile moderate hike near Bolinas promises unforgettable views of the rugged coastline, serene lakes like Bass Lake and Pelican Lake, and a unique vista point offering a glimpse of Upper Alamere Falls.
Planning to hike the Alamere Falls Vista trail? While the Coast Trail section is straightforward, finding the spur trail to the falls vista requires a keen eye. Look for a distinct deer trail and a rock arrow just after a sharp right-hand bend past Pelican Lake. Please be aware that this trail leads to a vista of the upper falls and is different from the unauthorized (and potentially dangerous) route to the base of Alamere Falls. Exercise extreme caution, stay on marked paths, and avoid descending any steep or unstable slopes to ensure a safe and enjoyable hiking experience at Point Reyes.
