RANCHO SAN ANTONIO HIKING〈朝活ハイキングその⑦〉

日本から友達が遊びにきてくれたということでハイキング！本当はPescadero Creekにいこうと思っていたけど最近の異常なカリフォルニアの雨量のせいで足元が悪いとみて、カジュアルに行けるハイキングコースのRancho San Antonioに行ってきました♪

(Good friend came from Japan and wanted to take her to Pescadero Creek but recent crazy rain got the trails goowy and mushy so changed to Rancho San Antonio for morning hiking!)

Open Space Preserveまでいって駐車。住所的にはCupertinoだから家から25分くらいでいける！

(Parked at Open Space Preserve. Only took 25min or so since its in Cupertino.)

今回はWildcats Trailを歩く予定だったんだけど行くまでの道もかなり綺麗だし、午前中は平日でもかなり人いる。

(I think the easiest trail is the Wildcat Trail which was perfect for us. Roads are highly maintained and lot of people hiking during weekday am.)

トレールにつく前からこの絶景☆

(This view even before the trail!)

Wildcat Trailはずっと川の横を歩くから音を聞きながら歩けるのはかなり気持ちいい。

(The Wildcat Trail goes along with the river so listening to the sound is super comforting.)

木の間を通っていったり。

(And going through the trees♡)

Vista Pointについた時はかなり気持ちよかった！視界が広がって風が通って最高♡

(The Vista Point was incredibly beautiful. Open space, lots of green air to breathe.)

駐車場では午前中粋なおじさん達が飛行機飛ばして遊んでました♡かなりイケてる♪近くにこんないい所があるなんて本当に嬉しい！

2.5時間のしっかり登るから、達成感といい感じの疲労感で帰宅後は無事爆睡でした♪笑

(Lots of cool guys flying their airplanes. So happy to find out such a cool and close place for hiking. 2.5 hours good exercise good tiredness and slept well afterwards lol.)
