About the area:
The Bohemia Ecological Preserve is a 1,000-acre protected open space preserve with 554 acres of the preserve stewarded by LandPaths and the rest by a private landowner. This preserve is located in the western hills of Sonoma County. The preserve’s geographic location with both coastal and inland influences allows for a unique mixture of habitats including old-growth forests, oak woodlands, coastal meadows, and a treasured waterfall.  The land is home to several endangered and at-risk species of flora and fauna, including northern spotted owls, red tree voles, and Pennell’s bird’s beak. Stunning vistas, 25-foot waterfall, and delightfully wooded riparian corridors truly make this preserve a special place.
 
Difficulty:
This hike is suitable for all ages but will include a fairly steep hike up and hike down. There is an elevation gain of about 500 feet over a little less than a mile. 
 
What to bring: 
  • Bottle of water and snacks
  • Sun protection and warm layers for the evening
  • Comfortable walking shoes
  • Headlamp or flashlight
