Many people do not know that Montecito and Summerland, CA have an extensive hiking and equestrian trail system that meanders for miles through the foothills just East of Santa Barbara. This beautiful trail system is a huge asset to this community. Imagine getting home from a hard day at work and going for a run, walk or bike ride in a shady trail that takes you through oak forests, fruit orchards, horse ranches and multi million dollar estates. Mountain and ocean views abound and the weather is almost always perfect. I love running on the MTF trails near my house and hiking many of the beautiful trails in the Montecito foothills. The Montecito Trails Fountation maintains this trail system.
Every year the Montecito Trails Foundation holds an annual barbecue fundraiser. Saturday September 25th 2010 was the date for this years fundraiser. I am a member of the Montecito Trails Foundation so I decided to stop by and support this great cause. There was good food, live music, a silent auction and live auction at the event and a good time was had by all. So, if you enjoy hiking on beautiful, well maintained trails, with breathtaking scenery, take a drive to Summerland or Montecito and start walking.
