The Franklin Trail is a shared-use trail with fantastic panoramic rolling hills and coastline views the entire way. It connects the Carpinteria valley floor to the Santa Ynez River and is popular with hikers, mountain bikers, and trail runners, so keep an eye out for others as you explore this beautiful area. The path runs through diverse terrain, including existing neighborhoods, a public high school campus, creek banks, avocado orchards, and a mountain with protected flora and fauna. Whether tackling a quick ascent or the full nearly 20-mile journey, this path is very scenic and well worth the trek.
