Parking spaces adjacent offer a way to park and then walk / jog all the surrounding areas. The pedestrian bridge spans a creek, joining City Hall with its sunken garden, to an area with businesses including a multiplex movie theater on the far side. The bridge structure marries modern construction with a vintage style. Dear Hubby and I walked around the entire area on a Sunday morning, having the spaces mostly to ourselves. I like this addition to the downtown area.

I appreciated the signage, especially pointing out and explaining the native flora and fauna. It was chilly most of the time this morning (48 degrees) but felt warmer in the sun. I'm sure this is a great little hike in all four seasons! We'll be back someday.

This hike in early April was beautiful, filled with wild flowers. There is a lot of traffic noise…read morefor the first part of the hike, but it gets better as you go up. Speaking of the incline, it meets my standards by starting low and going up fairly gradually. The views are incredible, and the hike back easy. It did feel longer than the posted signs claimed.

You check in at the main office downtown, then hop on a tour bus to the ranch property. Our driver was super informative and entertaining along the way. The drive itself felt like part of the experience with bumpy ranch roads, multiple gates, gorgeous scenery, and a real behind the scenes feel of the property. Once you arrive, the staff gets you geared up with all the safety equipment and everyone was incredibly friendly, professional, and great with all ages. After gearing up, you take an old Army style jeep up the mountain and that ride alone was an adventure Super rickety, steep, and fun! We felt very safe the entire time because before every single zip line, the staff carefully checked everyone's safety gear and connections. There are 6 zip lines total and each one is different with spectacular views that change throughout the course. One thing to know is that you should be in reasonably good shape because there are mini hikes between some of the zip lines. There are lots of water stations along the course, which was great, but the experience is definitely active and you do not want to hold up the group. Totally worth it though and such a memorable Central Coast adventure for families, couples, teens, and adventurous kids!

In Spanish the word, Atascadero means one big mess. This to me is the best way to describe this…read morecity. One big beautiful mess. Grapevines, open land, hills, oak trees, golden grass, ranch style homes, clean, paved roads leading to multiple planned out destinations surround this low key area. It feels more like a get away city for the upper class who probably own mansions in Hollywood, but this is when they want a taste of simple ranch life. Then you also have the other half which you can tell have been living here for a long time or inherited the big pieces of property. Then of course you have the still pricey locations where the middle class lives to provide services for the Atascadero residents and visitors. Sounds like the formula used in majority of California cities, but it's nicer and cleaner here. I leave this review with one of my favorite quotes, "You can sit at the dining table, but you can't touch the silverware."
