About this place

Added by Outbound

The Blacberry - Thistle Loop is a relatively easy hiking trail at Ragle Ranch park. This trail is used for hiking and running and offers some cover/shade as well as great views of foliage especially in the fall months. This trail is located on the west side of Sebastopol, California. 

The park is dog friendly and has plenty of benches along the trail to stop, take in the view, or rest your legs. There are wild blackberry bushes along the trail which bear fruit in the summer.  

PARKING:

There is a parking fee inside the park if you do not have a Sonoma County Park's Pass. You can also park just outside of the park on Ragle Rd, which adds a little distance to the hike.

Great afternoon stroll in Sebastopol. I started from from the dog park parking lot in Ragle. Keep in mind there’s a $7 parking fee ...

Ragle Ranch Shorter Loop
This is a great option in Ragle Ranch if you're looking for something a little shorter than the larger extended loop.
