Big Sur River meanders around in the Park through forests of ancient Redwoods and riparian woodlands. Many fine swimming holes can be found in this stretch of the River.

A short hike through towering redwoods, along a babbling brook takes you to Pfeiffer Falls.

How to  get to Big Sur Lodge – a road guide and log
 

 

 

Hiking the back country is like stepping back in time. This is the California before Europeans arrived. San Antonio Valley is a profoundly rich archaeological and ecological area.
 

Wildlife in San Simeon

Once thought extinct, Elephant Seals have made a resounding comeback. Go the to scene of some real wildlife excitement. Hearst would have loved it, right there in his front yard!

Big Sur Lodge is in the heart of California Condor country. Virtually every day they can be seen from the trails and around the Lodge.

Some of the best trail heads of Big Sur’s fabled hikes are at the Lodge. A popular hike through redwoods to Pfeiffer Falls begins at the Lodge. Close to the cottages is a nature interpretative center and historical museum.
