Green Gulch GGNRA Hike (April 27) Preview

Here’s Wendy’s description for a hike that we haven’t done (at least in the last two years):  “Today we get to see the beautiful organic vegetable garden at the Zen Center’s Green Gulch Farms on our way up to the Coyote Ridge Trail. Lunch overlooking the ocean on our way back down to Muir Beach.”

Directions to trailhead:  Take the Stinson Beach/Highway 1 exit off Highway 101. Go through Tam Junction, and take Shoreline Highway and follow signs to Muir Beach.

Restrooms at trailhead. Time: 55 minutes from COM.

Weather forecast:  Winter seems determined to hang on this year.  As of Friday, April 23, the was the forecast for the day of the hike:  Rain likely. Mostly cloudy, with a high near 59.  (Click here for an updated forecast).

More on this hike:  Although our actual route may vary, hike A10 (Coastal – Coyote Ridge – Green Gulch) in the Martins’ book, Hiking Marin, covers this area. The GGNRA Marin Headlands map shows the trails.  (Click here for more information on Green Gulch Farm).  The following Google Earth image shows where we will be hiking.
