Hikes and Directions
Hikes at Rodman have been suspended indefinitely due to extremely wet conditions. We'll let you know when we are resuming them. Thanks for your patience! Usually... every 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month we offer guided nature walks at the Rodman Preserve at 9am. This easy 1.1 mile hike takes about 90-minutes, looping around an oak-studded hillside with panoramic vistas of the Rodman Slough and the north end of Clear Lake, across to Bartlett Springs. From local history to flora and fauna galore, there is something here for everyone. Become inspired by the landscape! The Rodman Preserve and Nature Education Center is located at 6350 Westlake Rd. Upper Lake, 95485. Take the Nice-Lucerne Cut-off off of Highway 29, between Lakeport and Upper Lake. Turn east onto the Nice-Lucerne Cut-off, then left on to Westlake Road. The preserve entry is to the immediate right after turning on to Westlake. The preserve is owned and operated by the Lake County Land Trust and this is the area where most walks and events are held. The Rodman Slough Park, further down the Nice-Lucerne Cut-off near the bridge that goes over Rodman Slough, is the County Park. |
