As you ascend the Figueroa Mountain Road Climb West, prepare for a visual feast that makes every pedal stroke worthwhile. You'll be treated to increasingly expansive views unfolding across the rolling Santa Ynez Valley, with its patchwork of vineyards and ranchlands. Look out for the distinct San Rafael Mountains rising dramatically around you as you climb higher into the Los Padres National Forest. Highlights include the breathtaking vistas from the upper sections, where the sheer scale of the wilderness becomes apparent, and on clear days, you might even glimpse distant ridges and the unique chaparral-covered landscape that defines this beautiful and rugged part of California.

Winding along the shores of Cachuma Lake, you are delighted by stunning views of the water and the surrounding mountains.

This is an epic road to ride on. By no means an easy one, but the sweeping views of the San Rafael Wilderness Area make up for the effort.

This is a beautiful running trail along the shores of Lake Cachuma. There's an abundance of wildflowers in the spring months and a few little trails off the route that take you right down to the water. The trail itself is compact dirt, but there are a few rocky parts so wear sensible shoes.

William Benjamin Foxen was a pioneer of Santa Barbara County during the 1800s. Foxen was born in Norwich County, Norfolk, England in 1796 and passed away in Santa Barbara during 1874. Foxen and his wife later on purchased the 8,875 acre Mexican-land grant known as “Rancho Tinaquaic”, which is now known as present-day Foxen Canyon Rd, stretches from the outskirts of Santa Maria to Los Olivos. Foxen had built a home from adobe, where his family of 12 children once resided. The San Ramon Chapel, which is just down the street from the old adobe vineyard, is where Foxen has been laid to rest.
