Description
A Park Ranger will introduce you to the meaningful history of Ram Head, including events of the 1733 African Revolution, while you explore and connect with each other and the unique landscape of this popular hiking trail. The Ram Head Guided Hike is an intermediate hike just under 2 and a half miles. This trail is rocky and steep in some areas and the desert habitat provides little shade. The hike will leave from the Salt Pond Bay parking lot and will include traversing both Salt Pond Beach and Blue Pebble Beach before climbing to the peak of Ram Head. Be sure to bring your sturdy walking shoes, plenty of water, and mineral based sunscreen.
