Montaña de Oro State Park, small primitive campground, equestrian camping, beautiful hiking, mountain biking and equestrian trails.

Montaña de Oro State Park Campground is about 40 miles south of Hearst Castle Visitor Center but it is an off the beaten path Central California Coastal jewel of a campground and state park with unique historical and natural beauties that should not overlooked during your visit to the California Central Coast. The Montaña de Oro State Park offers a small primitive campground and equestrian camping, miles and miles of hiking, mountain biking and equestrian trails. The state park features a variety of terrains and habitats to enjoy and explore; from sand dunes to beautiful marine coastal terraces and rocky beach tide pool areas rising quickly to the top of the 1,347-foot Valencia Peak; you should climb to the top of Valencia Peak and hike the marine terraces but the canyon hikes are my personal favorites.
