Summary: The first part of the trail follows Moonridge trail looking down upon Indian Creek. Trail then drops down steeply into an area if volcanic rock with a spectacular 70 foot waterfall plunging into a large pool. The return leg of the loop is an easy meandering trail along the banks of Indian creek, with a number of lovely picnic spots along the way. I promise that you will be surprised that there is such a nice setting amongst the suburban sprawl. Trailhead: From the Moorpark Freeway (23), exit on Avenida de Los Arboles and go west (a right turn if you are coming from Moorpark). Follow de Los Arboles until it ends at Big Sky Drive. Make a U-turn and the park entrance is on the right side of the road.

It is absolutely beautiful this time of year on order of STUNNING. Here is a video I shot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YUG0tfmLDQ Can anyone tell me on the Santa Rosa Trail on Montclef Ridge, where exactly the area is where you can get the view of both valleys? This is also where scenes from many films such as Flaming Star, etc. were shot as they traversed the ridge and then rode down into the Conejo Valley. Can anyone help where exactly this portion of the trail is? Is it on the ridge above the homes down at the entrance to the park? Thanks for any help. The park was closed off again as recently as 7th Feb with strict enforcement. the park is again open. However, during recent rains a local hiker VERY familiar with the area drowned here, so HIKE SAFE! R.I.P. Matthew Chidgey obviously those who rated this trail on the 23/24 did not hike it on those days due to TRAIL CLOSURE. The recent rains have caused these trails to be TREACHEROUS and the entire park is closed and taped off with strict enforcement. Im going there today my sisters friend says it it nice I want to go see it. :-> I Have been going hiking here since i was very little and just love all the places there are to explore here Very nice hike with scenic views and of course the waterfall. Tons of picnic tables to have lunch in scenic areas. There are warnings signs about recent car theft so don't leave anything of value in car.. Notice: Traveling in the backcountry can be hazardous.
