"Beautiful day! 3 miles up, 3 miles down. Super views up and down the coast. Straight forward hike mostly on a fire road except for the last 1/3 of a mile to the top. Wanted to bag this one for 6 years, timing just never seemed to work out. " — DoyleWalton • Jan 18, 2021
"It was my "weekend off" from hiking so I wanted something close and relatively short. Gaviota Peak fit the bill and was actually stunningly beautiful. I ran some intervals on the way up to increase the difficulty." — klotito • Feb 18, 2018
"Headed up from Gaviota Beach past the Wind Caves and Overlook, under the freeway and then up to the Peak and back via Trespass Trail and the Tunnel View Trail. It was just under 13 miles and 4,310' of total elevation gain according to the app." — Freedomista • Oct 15, 2016
"A late start meant descending in the dark. Took a detour to check out the hot spring but didn't take a picture. There were skinny dippers, so that would have just been creepy of me." — Christopher • Oct 12, 2013
"Probably my favorite CA hike. I actually climbed Gaviota Peak at least 7 times between 2005 and 2015 but after creating my Peakery account this was the only confirmed date that I could locate. Two thumbs up! Would love to do it again someday." — DudeAlmighty • Mar 12, 2012
