Laguna Coast Wilderness Park: Big Bend - Park in Laguna Beach - 18751 Laguna Canyon Rd, USA

A lovely train through the canyons. It’s certainly a long incline at first so be prepared to be properly hydrated. Once you make your way up, you get to see nice 360 views of canyons, mountains, Pacific Ocean and Orange County in the distance. Spring is best the time to hike as you get to see a lot of greenery.

Had a wonderful time here. Hiked the Laguna Ridge trail for about an hour. Loved the fact that there was a lot of uphill, curves and different terrain. Got some great shots. The view of the ocean was amazing. Learned about the Pacific Pocket Mouse, didn't see any trash, and people were generally nice and said hello. Word of advise, if going solo and have noise cancelling headphones on; be alert of the cyclist because they come in hot. I took mine off and didn't need music. The breeze was singing a real sweet melody.

Little intense, about 4.7 mile, first half of the trail is high elevation. First 1 Mike too around 25 mins. We liked the view on the top of the trail

We did a big bend loop. Pretty hike, easy. We did encounter a rattlesnake, almost stepped on it. Would advise to watch your step during the peak season for rattlesnake, April and May.

Laguna Coast Wilderness Park is becoming one of my favorite places to hike. I usually park and go up Big Bend, then down Willow Trail. I added Lizard Trail to my route last time and I highly recommend it! The first part of the trail is rocky and then it becomes a nice stroll through the woods. The parking lot fills up so I recommend coming early. You can use the OC Parks Pass to cover the $3 parking fee.

Great trails for mountain biking! Good spot to get in hikes and trail runs too. I highly recommend for outdoor adventures!

Really nice hike near Laguna! The beginning is severely steep, but all the trails in the mountains are very manageable.

Great place to hike and bike. Nice wide trails in some spots but skinny single-track for the bikes. Could use some more sinage for hikers to watch out for bikes on the small trails.
