The California State Parks, San Luis Reservoir State Recreation Area will be conducting the “Path of the Padres” hike and boat tour each Saturday and Sunday from Feb. 27 through April 13. The hike begins at the Los Banos Creek Reservoir boat launch ramp at 8 a.m. and returns to the ramp about 3:30 p.m. The “Path of the Padres” is a historic 35 mile trail that got its name because it was the path through the Diablo Mountain Range taken by the padres as they came from Mission San Juan Bautista into the Central Valley. The tour lunch stop is near the historic “baths,” deep pools carved in bedrock by Los Banos Creek.
