Easy trails with superb views. Beware of poison ivy, wear trousers and long sleeves, wash them back home: this is serious matter.

My friends and I were camping at the nearby Pfeiffer Big Sur SP (5 miles south), so our camping fee also got us into this SP, hooray! We were looking for a longer trail with great views that wasn't too strenuous, and we got exactly what we were looking for. We started at the main parking lot, where we immediately... More

We had just completed the Pfeiffer state Park hike to the falls and the $9.00 (senior rate) allowed us free access to the Andrew Molera.

Here you can walk across meadows to the ocean and play at the Big Sur river mouth or hike up above the cliffs to the south and explore coves and hidden beaches. What a treasure.

ok park, couldn't take the cream whatever trail since there was no bridge,and have to take a detour trail to the beach. Had to cross a creek with knee deep water, but creek was full of stinky seaweeds. I can skip this park and go to Julia Pfeiffer Park.

I don't object to this at all but, in return I do expect an adequate map to be displayed as well as one or two helpful signs to the beginning of the beach walk. Initially we set off... More

A little bit of a hike to the water-beach is pebbly not sandy. The beach is quiet and feels more undiscoverewd than the Carmel or Monterey beaches. Also a great place for hiking. But definitely consider the horse rides.
