Cypress Grove Trail - Point Lobos State Reserve

Point Lobos State Reserve is located on the central coast of California in Monterey County. The entrance is located three miles south of Carmel on Highway 1.

These are a few pictures taken on the Cypress Grove Trail. The Cypress Grove Trail winds (8/10 mile) through one of the two naturally growing stands of Monterey cypress trees remaining on Earth.

Point Lobos State Reserve was originally acquired to protect these gnarled trees. This particular grove is a memorial to Mr. and Mrs. A.M. Allan.
