    You have to do this! You will have the most amazingly fun time! Book your appointment now as they are sold out months in advance and once you ride with them you will understand why. Jorge was amazing and his confidence in me allowed me to ride like a pro! This is truly an exclusive event, as if it is just your party and your guide. The views were stunning and it was delightful to get into the back side of the los Padres national forest. Riding straight above Montecito gave you a birdseye view into the neighborhoods and out to the ocean. Be sure and plan on staying for the rest of the day as there are great hiking trails and picnic spots with unparalleled views. We are so blessed to live in such a beautiful part of the country. Thank you Jorge for guiding us and making the experience over the top FUN and exhilarating. Can't wait till next time!

    I surprised my girlfriend with a 2 hour ATV ride for our one year anniversary. And man, was it a blast! Jorge was our guide and he was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Enjoy the Mountain for anyone looking for an adrenaline rush and unique group activity. A few things I would like to mention to have a smooth and wonderful experience like we did: - Sign your waivers online ahead of time - Verify the exact location of the meetup point and lookup directions before you go up the mountain (you will likely lose service halfway up) - Dress accordingly. We wore long pants, jackets, and gym shoes. (and bring clothes and shoes to change into after since you will be getting dirty!) - Keep water in your car so you won't be thirsty going back down the mountain! - Don't be afraid, these guys know what they're doing!! Also, if you can, book on a day with good weather and clear skies. The only issue we had was that we had gone on a foggy, rainy day and it was a challenge driving up the mountain to get to the meeting point. We still had a great time regardless of the weather! We had an unforgettable experience and are looking forward to doing this again soon!

    I can't say enough about my adventure with Enjoy The Mountain and our ride with Jorge. First and foremost Jorge is the BEST ever. We had such an amazing ride! I booked this on a whim and this memory will last us forever. Thank you and I will be booking for additional friends to join me! If I could give more stars for price and adventure I would!! Thanks for providing everything needed and our photos. Penny

    Chillin on an atv in the mountains!

    Found this company on Yelp in preparation for a weekend trip up to Santa Barbara. I was a little worried that the people might not show because it seemed like a small website and company, but there were no issues with timing at all. Overall, it was a pretty fun experience! Our guide was already there when we arrived, taking another group of people out on the mountain. He was professional and helpful, but it would have been nice to get off the ATVs for a few minutes near the top to get some nice views of the valleys below. He was more than happy to take pictures for us, and he definitely seemed to know his way around the trails in Santa Barbara. The ATVs that we used were pretty new, and we didn't have any mechanical issues at all. They were a little muddy from the previous group that went out, but it wasn't anything too bad. You have the option of getting a single person ATV, or having 2 riders on 1 ATV. If you really don't want to be in charge of driving, I guess you could book the double occupant ATV, but if you're going to go, you might as well drive on your own right? All their ATVs are automatic, so it's literally just a gas and go type of deal. Super easy to use. If you can ride a tricycle, you can ride an ATV. After booking the trip online, I got a lot of information on when and where to meet via email. The company does a good job of giving you that information before your trip. A little on the expensive side if you ask me, but if you're looking for a fun little activity to do in the area, I would recommend these guys!

    Amazing experience in Santa Barbara! Jorge was awesome...we couldn't have asked for a better guide! Being my first time riding an ATV, I was a bit nervous riding up the mountain...but Jorge's calm and professional demeanor put me at ease. I would definitely do it again! Tips: You will get dirty...it is highly recommended to wear pants and a long sleeved shirt. Also, if you are afraid of heights or get motion sickness this is not the place for you. If you will be riding for long take a backpack for water etc. The location is a bit tough to find so make sure to allow yourself enough time for travel. Happy trails! :-)

    Pit stop on the mountain!

    Had a wonderful time with Nick, our guide! He was super friendly and knowledgeable about the mountain and can put any fears you have to rest. After walking us through the basics, he made sure we were comfortable on the ATV before pressing on. Since we were a small group, we ended up going to the top of the mountain during our hour-long ride. The previous group had gotten back a little later, but Nick made sure we made up the time and since we rode the double, he made sure that we both had a chance to drive and that we all felt safe and comfortable while enjoying ourselves. Would DEFINITELY recommend this to anyone looking for an adventure off the beaten path! Only hiccup would be finding the meeting point (it's up in the mountains, not in downtown SB) and since we didn't have cell phone service there, it was hard to figure out if we were in the right spot, or if we had missed the group (we were a few mins late..)

    I'm so glad I stumbled upon Enjoy The Mountain while planning my birthday weekend. Nick was our tour guide and he was more than fantastic. He called me few minutes before our appointment just to make sure 1. We were on our way, and 2. We didn't get lost. As soon as we arrived he was very friendly and and ready to get us on our adventure. At first I was worried that having a tour guide would've made it less fun, but honestly, Nick enhanced our experience through some of the stories he told us on our few small breaks. This overall experience was super fun! I highly recommend Enjoy The Mountain for anyone who wants a real adventure! Just a few tips: 1. Sign your waivers ahead of time! The reception up there is spotty, and you'll waste lots of time waiting to get enough signal to access the waivers online. 2. Take screenshots of confirmation email they send you when you finish the waiver. That way when you arrive, you won't be trying to load your email with the half bar of reception you get. 3. Plan to arrive 30min - 1 hour early. The path there is kind of tricky, and it's very easy to take the wrong turn and waste time. Follow the directions they send to your email. 4. You WILL get dirty. Take long pants, and old shoes. My boyfriend and I took a change of clothes for afterwards so we wouldn't get back in our car with all the mud and dirt on us. 5. Have fun!

    Birthday tour
    Natalia N.

    We went today for my birthday with Nick. The tour was amazing!!! Nick was a very professional, friendly and fun guide. We took our 8 year old daughter with us and she rode by herself! Nick made us feel very comfortable about her safety. He also showed us a snake and fossils on the way up, which made our trip even more special and fun:) Thank you so much, Nick, for an unforgettable birthday tour!!!!!!!!!

    I'm so happy that we decided to go atving during a last minute getaway for the weekend to Santa Barbara!! Nick was our guide and he was so wonderful.. Highly recommend booking this tour. We opted for the hour session which was perfect for us. Make sure to fill out the waiver before you get there and print out a copy. Connection up there is very iffy. I was really scared riding but Nick was very patient. I did not feel rushed during the tour at all. He let me go at my pace (even though it's a snails pace) lol. He would stop and take pictures for us and let us stop at the scenic routes. I really appreciated that he could tell my husband wanted to go faster than the pace I was going and took him up the mountain for an additional 10 mins. I'd highly recommend doing this tour if you're looking for something fun to do in santa Barbara.

    Jasmine C.

    We had an amazing tour with Nick! He was super friendly and knowledgeable about the mountains and wildlife. This dude breathes the mountain! We loved the tour. He took some awesome photos for us. Very warm and personable tour guide, we would definitely recommend this tour to anyone. As long as you're not a bonehead, safety is not a concern. ATV and provided equipment was all up to par. Big thanks to Nick again for an amazing tour. Wildlife spotted: Lizard (Nick tried to catch it), Baby Squirrel, and Deer (about six feet from us, very cool)

    Had a great Time. Showed up early and they were ready for us. All the paperwork and waivers are done online...so no fuss there. The guide was Jorge...(owner I am guessing from reading all these other reviews?. He was a cool dude. Gave us some simple instructions and away we went. We did the one hour ride. My self and two boys. The terrain was not easy nor was it over our heads....perfect for the 3 of us. We had a great time!

    Carla Q.

    Our guide was Jorge, his directions were just on point for a fun filled adventure. Notes.. Make reservations by either calling or booking online, they will give you directions on how to reach the upper oso campground in the Los Padres Natl Forest. Come dressed for an adventure, you will get dirty and thirsty.. bring some Water lesson learned

    Incredible experience!
    Margarita A.

    We met with Nick for the tour. He is a great tour guide. He is fun, creative, friendly, and professional. It was our first time and we came out as pros. I did like that we were able to stop at the top to take pictures and listen to nature with breathtaking views. We got the 2 hour tour and it was an incredible experience. We had a blast riding the ATVs. We will be back! Since we were famished he recommended that we go to Cold Spring Tavern which is on the way back. It was a great recommendation. Tri tip sandwich was exquisite!

    Enjoying the views in Santa Barbara!

    I've been trying to get a straight answer from the company but can't seem to get one. Is the meeting point in Santa Barbara really far from the 101 fwy? Thanks so much!

There are some picnic tables and benches up there as well, and it's (fortunately) not very crowded at the moment.

One tip: there's no gas within like 20 miles of here, so make sure you tank up before you roll up this mountain!

If you visit from Dec to May you will see 7 little distinct waterfalls, all flowing into small pools, directly one after another. The waterfalls have been attracting visitors since the 1800s. The trail to reach the falls is about 3-miles out-and-back. Navigating the different trails can be a little tricky and involves multiple trails and unsigned forks so you may want to use AllTrails app as your guide. The first mile you'll walk along an uphill paved road with some really nice ocean views. After you pass a bridge and then a trail kiosk you'll take a left at the fork. After passing Mission Creek you'll take another left up a steep and rocky incline. Eventually you'll reach the point where you'll need to take a sharp right and head downhill to the canyon floor. You can use the assistance of a rope that's attached to a tree. Climbing up the first waterfall is pretty easy but the next 6 should only be attempted with caution. It's best to visit from Dec to May, preferably after a good rain. It's a popular destination so it's best to visit early on a weekday. Parking is limited.

Parking is Free and Plentiful -- In early August 2025 we showed up at 6:30pm on a Monday (to hike the preserve). There was tons of parking in the lots that abut The Boathouse, and the lots are always free for the public. There is also free street parking on the street just past the traffic circle. The hike/trail (The Douglas Family Preserve): A nice easy trail, and really fun for the doggos as it is an off-leash area. I'd say that half the people we saw on the trail had a pup, while the other half had no pets. The loop from the ground to the top and back is 1.5miles. There is 150 feet of elevation gain over a distance of about 1/3 of a mile; the rest of the hike is flat (w/ a large mesa at the top with lots of interconnected trails if you want to make the hike more extensive than a 1.5mile loop). Our dog not only enjoyed the walk, but had lots of fun trying to start some small play sessions with other dogs that she saw on the trail. Bonus: this trail uses the same parking lot as Hendry's Beach (Arroyo Burro Beach), which is leash free along the coastline east of the lifeguard tower (to the left of the lifeguard tower if you are facing the ocean).

I'm not an avid hiker I really don't go hiking at all In the middle of the day I was walking towards "The peak" Out of all days that could be chosen I found gold The weather was superb... Of course it had it's weird breaks (heat and sun) For the most part it was great And if you want a great experience Choose a day featuring great weather..

    (I am more than confused with what trail(s) are actually located here, and need to state that sadly…read moreI hadn't hiked here pre-fire and flood.) My first trip I was trying to locate Tangerine Falls, which may or may not be located on the other side of the washed out area of E. Mountain Drive. So once I turned my car around and was heading back to Olive Mill/Hot Springs Road I found a very small place to park. (NOTE: If that small area is full, you can park on Riven Rock Drive.) I began the trail, again fully thinking I was heading for Tangerine Falls. (But even today, as I check Google Maps, they call this: HOT SPRINGS CANYON TRAIL HEAD.) - so doesn't that constitute a name change? As a very beginner hiker the trail starts fast. I had boots and walking poles, which helped my footing immensely, Once I realized I had no idea where I was headed to I asked a few people for help who were on the trail, too. They informed me that now (post fire and flood) the way to access Tangerine Falls is via Gibraltar Road. Lots of dark green trees, lots of black burned trees, too. There is a place where you cross the road and then continue on the trail. After about 1/2 mile, I believe, there are 2 signs that gave direction to HOT SPRINGS trail, and I think there may have been a bridge (since washed out) where you could cross the creek to hike another trails? SEE PHOTO - Not too sure about this though, only inferring from the signs and what *looked like where a bridge may have been. I wasn't confident crossing over fallen trees and logs to cross the creek to literally "see what was on the other side". I did hike just a bit past this sign - and the trail is very narrow and drops off steep to the creek. Since I am a big newbie I turned around from there ASAP, but quite a few people flew right past me. Again, this review is from a newbie hiker. I'm in love with this place regardless and am determined to figure out what exactly is up there still and what trails a hiker has access to. (Cold? Hot? Tangerine? San Ysidro? Saddle Rock? What else?) Since I'm not a local I am putting together piece by piece on my own as I can. Apparently there are hotel ruins up higher as well? Expect more pictures ASAP! And bring water, good shoes, and maybe a trekking pole if you're a newbie like me. :)
