Day Hikes Around Orange County
by Robert Stone

From the Day Hikes series.

Orange County invites exploration! This southern California county is framed by the Pacific Coast on one side while the Santa Ana Mountains run along its backside, offering incredibly diverse landscape and scenery.

Despite the presence of the Orange County metropolis, nearly 30% of the county's acreage is parklands, wildlife sanctuaries, national forests, and wilderness preserves. Day Hikes Around Orange County is a comprehensive guide to 108 day hikes in and around the county, providing access to these natural, undeveloped areas and hundreds of miles of hiking trails, from the dramatic coastline to the interior mountains and valleys. Residents and travelers will find this 256-page book an essential guide to exploring Orange County. Highlights include magnificent rock formations, bay-side coves and caves, eroding sandstone cliffs, marine terraces, tidal estuaries, peninsulas, mountain peaks, waterfalls, ridge walks, weather-sculpted canyons, old ranch roads, historical ruins, large public parks, and sweeping views from the ocean to the cities.

Each hike includes a detailed map, accurate driving and hiking directions, distance/time/elevation statistics, a list of relevant maps, and summaries to help hikers find a trail appropriate to their ability and desire. Larger overall maps show the hike locations in the greater metropolitan area. All hikes can be completed during the day, and a range of difficulty levels is included. (Map sources and references are included for extending the hikes).
