I thought I heard they were closed to the public.

I take my grandkids here frequently. They absolutely love scrambling around on the rocks, then we picnic under the pepper tree. The visitor center is great. The kids love the live snakes, tarantula, etc. (behind glass, of course). The PCT trail to the tunnel is a really enjoyable and vigorous workout. Thanks for creating this site. Terrific info. Cheers!

Hi Jelena! Just got back from scouting trails in Big Sur. For more maps of Vasquez Rocks I would start at the Visitor Center (there’s a link in the blog post under Additional Resources).

Do you know of any good resources for trail maps of Vasquez rocks? I’m training a horse for long-distance riding and am looking for some longer loops in the park – I’ve only so far been able to do 5-6 miles at a time, like your hike here.

Thanks, Brett! Vasquez Rocks would be a great place to introduce kids to the outdoors. There’s lots of rocks to climb on, the Native American petroglyphs and fascinating geology. And you can hike as much or as little as they are comfortable with.

This place is a little sentimental to me as it was the first place I took my daughter hiking with me when she was about 6 and she always asks me to go back. She loved it there. Great pics and great trip write up.
