Plan Your Visit
West-bound view of the Balconies on the Old Pinn trail. People come to Pinnacles to hike, rock climb, watch and study wildlife, view wildflowers, and experience nature. Pinnacles offers solitude, challenge, and escape from the urban interface of both the San Francisco and Monterey Bay areas. Unlike many national parks, Pinnacles is most popular in the cooler months. During the spring, when the grasses are green and a variety of wildflowers can be seen along any trail, hiking is at its best. Fall and winter are also excellent times to visit. During the summer, extreme temperatures can make hiking uncomfortable at best, and possibly dangerous for those who are unprepared. If you plan to visit Pinnacles from late May through early September, please check the weather forecast and plan accordingly. We recommend hikers consume at least one liter of water / hour while hiking under any weather conditions. No Fires in the campground, no smoking on the trails. The fire danger in the area is very high. Observe these rules to protect park resources and have an enjoyable visit.
