Published by Steve Clark on 02/03/202502/03/2025

Highlights

• Moderate hike of 4.4 miles
• Good for conditioning because the Autumn Ridge and Meadow Vista Trails are quite steep in places
  Good views of Simi Valley and Lang Ranch Open Space
• Includes two of the segments of the 2025 Conejo Open Space Challenge

Description

This is not a very long hike, but both Autumn Ridge and Meadow Vista Trails have an elevation gain of 550′ with some steep sections, so this loop will give you a good workout whichever direction you take. The two trailheads are connected by a short jaunt along the neighborhood streets.

Park at the east end of Lang Ranch Parkway at the Albertson Motorway trailhead. Please tread and speak quietly at and near trailhead so as not to disturb the nearby residents. Walk west for 2 blocks then turn north on Autumn Ridge Drive. The Autumn Ridge Trail trailhead is at the junction of three streets, Autumn Ridge, Westlake Blvd. and Oak Valley Lane.
