Parks & Nature
You are located in an area that is surrounded by National Parkland, there for your enjoyment. You'll find some of the most gorgeous sites on any of these trails. I download the All Trails phone app to get details on any hiking trail in the area
Abbotts Lagoon Trailhead
This is the area that led me to move to California. It is stunning!
Fourteen tule elk on Tomales Point. The Pacific Ocean is in the background.
Tule Elk Herd
The tule elk herds had virtually disappeared by 1860, thirteen years before the state awarded them complete protection. In the spring of 1978, two bulls and eight cows were brought in from the San Luis Island Wildlife Refuge near Los Banos. The elk were contained within a temporary, three acre enclosure to allow for adjustment to their new surroundings. That summer, six of the cows bore calves. In the fall, seventeen elk were released from the enclosure on Tomales Point to 1,050 hectares (2,600 acres) of open grassland and coastal scrub. By the summer of 1988, the population was at ninety-three animals. The population census taken in 2000 counted over 400 elk. In 2009, over 440 were counted at Tomales Point, making the the Point Reyes herds one of the largest populations in California.
The tule elk can be found in several locations within the park but the best chance of seeing them is in the Tule Elk Preserve at Tomales Point. They graze freely and are often seen near the road as you drive into the preserve.
