Trip Change: Malibu Creek State Park: now 14 Nov., 8 AM Saturday

Other than the date change, everything remains the same.

Malibu Creek State Park
1925 Las Virgenes Rd, Calabasas
Saturday, 8 November 2025 at 8am

Family guide: 1-3 miles walking on pavement and dirt trails. Morning temperatures start cool.

[Directions] From the Ventura Fwy (101): exit at Las Virgenes Rd.  Go south on Las Virgenes Rd. for about 3 miles. Continue past the traffic light at the intersection with Mulholland Hwy.  The Park entrance is on the right just south of the traffic light.
Coast Route: From PCH, take Malibu Canyon Road inland. The main entrance of the park is on the left about 1.5 miles past the traffic light at Piuma Rd.  (Don’t turn at the entrance to Tapia Park which is just after Piuma Rd.)
We’ll meet in the second (lower) parking lot near the bathroom block.  Look for the sign that says “Main Trailhead Parking.” If you cross a bridge over a creek, you drove too far. Either way, allow 45 minutes travel time from Santa Monica.

If you don’t have a CA State Park pass, the day-use fee is $12 per vehicle, $11 for seniors,  or $3/hour. Go straight after you pass the kiosk. State parks passes can be purchased at the Administration Office (see map below). If you’re 62 or over, the Golden Bear Pass is $20 per calendar year, so buying one in November isn’t suggested. Wait for January.

Meet at 8:00 a.m. in the Main Trailhead parking lot. Watch for roadside birds on your way into the park.
