  • What makes this the greatest waterfall hike in California? Well, the Seven Falls Trail of Santa Barbara has it ALL. From the very start, this popular Santa Barbara hike meanders along gorgeous forest trails and streams until hikers reach the first major waterfall. From there, it's a choose your own adventure. Bold and adventurous hikers can continue on up the 7 falls, a route that requires swimming, scrambling, climbing, some rope work, and awesome hidden waterfalls! After you're done exploring the 7 falls, there's another option to continue up the trail to find the hidden pools, which are another absolutely spectacular water feature. Which pool would you jump in?
    Part of the reason this Santa Barbara hike is so incredible is because hikers of almost all skill levels can find something to enjoy here. If scrambling is not your thing, spend some time relaxing by the first major waterfall. If cold plunging and adrenaline are your thing, and you've got some climbing experience, there is so much to add to make your own awesome southern california waterfall hike!

    Omigosh! I never knew Santa Barbara held such marvels! I used to go there to rock climb, but I'd rather have gone waterfall chasing! The music of the rushing waters partially provided a magical soundtrack, but I'm missing your wonder-filled arias!

      Mark we were in the same boat! Honestly, if it wasn't for subscribers repeatedly recommending Santa Barbara we would never even have known to look for amazing hikes there. And not to worry, after a couple more waterfall adventures we will have some epic Sierra adventures coming up in July that will definitely require an epic soundtrack!! ❤️

      Totally agree. There is nothing more pleasurable than a sweaty, challenging hike where the "summit" is an epic waterfall with no one around. Yes this one is definitely worth a trip, and if you have a few days you can climb up to Tangerine Falls another day, which is also pretty awesome. Santa Barbara is an awesome under the radar hiking destination! ❤️

    My favorite Cascades are on Kern River up road to Sherman Pass. Kernville side. Also has the twin falls on hwy. Both are easier to walk to than this but it is remote area. Got 100 giants to. It's about the drive. Keene to Kernville Caliente Road?
    I fell slipped 2 feet today. Wrenched back. 😢 first thought was Elise back. Dogs sitting there. Me looking quarter mile down mountain.

    It has been years since I did this hike and it is in my backyard. Once I tried scaling the wall on the left side of the falls in pool 3 trying to stay dry and lost footing scrapping my knees on the way down into the water, oh well it was well worth it.
    Seven falls is a special place to us here in SB and it's good to see someone has outfitted some places with rope which wasn't there the last time I did this hike... You lucked out with having the place all to yourselves that day, so Awesome. Now you inspired me to head up there for a revisit before the creek dries up and mosquitos take over👍.

    ELISE and ADAM a hello from France. God nature is magical, seeing all these waterfalls wither from cauldron to cauldron while growing with each difference in altitude, it's a great beauty. What a pleasure to watch you splash around and have fun like two children. In this uncertain world, you offer us magical moments that allow us to escape. ELISE, on the trails you cheat a little by using ropes even though they are on the verge of breaking, they are not very safe, while ADAM does not hesitate to test their solidity to reach the higher levels of natural pools. Kisses to you both. DAN
    ELISE et ADAM un bonjour de France. Dieu que la nature est féérique, voir toutes ces cascades s’étioler de chaudron en chaudron tout en grandissant à chaque dénivelé, c’est d’une grande beauté. Quel plaisir de vous regarder patauger et vous amuser comme deux enfants. Dans ce monde incertain vous nous offrez des instants magiques qui nous permettent de nous évader. ELISE, sur les sentiers tu triches un peu en utilisant quand même des cordes pourtant au bord de la rupture, elles ne sont pas très sécurisantes, tandis qu’ADAM n’hésite pas à éprouver leur solidité pour atteindre les niveaux supérieurs des piscines naturelles. Bises à vous deux. DAN

    What is the water source? Snowmelt? Great Boulder scrambling🐬

    • @LiveHardxLoveHard
      @LiveHardxLoveHard  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Mary! The Santa Ynez mountains are a bit too low for snowmelt, so this is just groundwater from rainfall coming down from higher up the mountains. That's one reason waterfall season doesn't last for too long around here -- once the water dries up for the year, there's no melting snow to keep it coming so you have to wait until after the next rainy season! ❤️

But remember they're illegal in any national park, so there's a limit to where they can be used. ❤️

      We were just discussing it with some friends at dinner yesterday! It's not for us, because we do so much long distance stuff that we really need to eat a lot of carbs. And also, we both like vegetables a lot. But carnivore/keto type diets can be very effective for getting ripped. It's just that it puts you into a low-glycogen state so it makes it hard to do hard long distance cardio. ❤️
