The Sweet Springs Nature Preserve has some accessible gravel trails as well as softer dirt trails with significant quantities of tree roots. Walking sticks recommended. Dogs allowed on all portions of the walk except within the Nature Preserve (alternate route available for that portion of the walk)

Come explore the seaside serenity of Los Osos and Baywood Park. The gem of our 5K walk is the Sweet Springs Nature Preserve, with its abundant waterfowl and expansive views of the Morro Bay Estuary. The 11K walk also takes you along several stretches of shoreline and to the Elfin Forest Boardwalk, with Pygmy Oaks and no less than eight distinct environment types.

Water and restrooms available at the start/finish and at the Baywood Boardwalk. Porta Potties available for the 11K near the corner of El Moro Ave and 11th Street.

Credit is $4.00 per event or you may walk for $2.00 if no credit is desired.
