Explore Local Trails & Hikes
We’re always up for adventures and hikes, so we had to share a few of our favorite local trails with you. At the top of the list is the Montaña de Oro Bluff Trail—our favorite place, hands down. It’s a flat, compact path with easy parking and nonstop, stunning coastal views along the entire route. It’s also where our engagement photos were taken! Below is a great list of other local favorites to explore during your visit.
SLO Downtown Shopping
Characterized by lots of local spots that have been part of the community for years. There are small shops to wander through, interesting home goods, places to grab a drink, good food—just a mix of things that feel very SLO.
