Pismo Preserve & Pismo Beach Hiking
Shore Cliff Hotel Is Your Gateway To The Pismo Preserve
After being closed to the public for the past four years due to construction, The Pismo Preserve is officially open to the public! Situated above the boundless blue Pacific Ocean, exploring the newly reopened Pismo Preserve is not an opportunity to be missed during your stay at Shore Cliff Hotel.
This protected land stretches out for over 900 acres, featuring 11 miles of trails that weave through oak woodlands along the coastal ridgeline. After the climb, panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean range from Port San Luis to the Oceano Dunes and beyond. Before you hit the trails, be sure to check the current hours of operation here. The latest features at the Pismo Preserve include a parking lot, restrooms, and paved trails. Bikers, equestrians, and hikers alike can each experience the entirety of the preservation thanks to the newly marked trails. Here, wildlife booms, creating a great educational opportunity for children, locals, and visitors to explore the native landscape more closely.
Located northeast of Pismo Beach in San Luis Obispo County, the Preserve is accessible just off the scenic Highway 101 and conveniently located across the highway from The Pismo Lighthouse Suites and Shore Cliff Hotel. As the closest hotels to the trailhead, our guests will have the unique opportunity to access the Pismo Preserve at their doorstep. Don’t miss out on all the adventure that awaits!
