Eureka Canyon Road is a ride you must have experienced at least once if you are in the Santa Cruz/Aptos area. Starting from Corralitos, you start climbing this small road in the forest in a very quiet and lush environment. As you get to the top of Eureka Canyon, you will get stunning views of the hills and the coast.

There is a segment of Eureka Canyon Road that is in pretty bad shape. They have recently resurfaced some of it, but just adding asphalt on top of potholes and large cracks is not going to solve the problem
