Upper Lopez Canyon Road

April 9, 2011

Recommendation: 1/5

Just came back for riding Upper Lopez Canyon Road, just north of Lopez Lake, which is north of Arroyo Grande, CA. The road stays paved north of Lopez Lake a little longer than I expected, and once the pavement ends, it is mostly grated dirt/rocks. However...

WARNING.... There are about 10-12 river crossings, which get fairly deep, and at some points, the road is actually the riverbed. Also, even though the map shows the road continuing on, it ends extremely early at a point where its walking only, with a locked gate. A few cars were parked there because I guess there are some trail heads where the road ends.

I don't recommend for Dual Purpose riding. Very short, and you'll get very wet, and there really isn't anything that exciting. If you want to practice your water riding though, or go hiking, feel free to go.
