Oso Creek Trail: Day 1

This morning we had a late breakfast at Jamba Juice then we drove to the Jeronimo/Via San Fernando street entrance of the Oso Creek Trail in Mission Viejo.

We only hiked for 30 minutes before the weather started to get too hot for my son and I to continue. There wasn't a cloud in the sky, it feels like summer today. We plan on exploring more of the 5.5 miles of Oso Creek Trail over the next few weeks.

Oso Creek Trail is such a beautiful area! It has a collection of natural and cultural attractions along its banks. The trails are shaded by ash, oak and sycamore trees. There is an oak grove, a meadow, a butterfly garden and a plant maze.

We have talked about visiting Oso Creek Trail for a while but never found the time. We have been riding our bikes on the Salt Creek Trail, San Juan Creek Trail and Aliso Creek Riding and Hiking Trail for the past few years. It's always great to find something new :)
