    Tips

    West Casitas Pass sits at just over 1,000 feet and is a scenic stretch of road in Ventura County that climbs gently through the coastal foothills between Carpinteria and Ojai. It offers wide-open views of chaparral-covered hillsides, ranchlands, and distant ocean glimpses. The road is popular with cyclists for its smooth pavement, low traffic, and steady elevation gain. Though the grade is manageable, there’s little shade—so it’s best tackled early in the day or during cooler months.

      This is the slightly shorter, and less scenic, of the two Casitas passes. It's well worth visiting East Casitas Pass, where you'll get a great view of Lake Casitas and Hines Peak.
