Wildflower Walks
We divide our hikes based on ecosystem type. Please read our descriptions below, and let us know which experience seems best for your group. Hikes average 2 hours, but can be adjusted to meet your group's needs. We strive to match experiences to guests, so the more we communicate before your hike, the more personalized your adventure!
​
Flowers vary seasonally.
​
If there is a species you really want to see, contact us early to check in about its status!
​
All hikes begin at the Samuels Ranch Sustainable main gate.

By appointment only.
