Geocache Description:

Roomy, hanging container doing a pirouette in our dark version of the Swan Lake ballet!

You can access Schwan Lake Park off 17th Avenue
via the Santa Cruz County Simpkins Family Swim Center parking lot.

Schwan Lake Park

This small park packs a lot of nature into a small space. On one short 1.1-mile trail, you can see giant oaks, groves of eucalyptus, and dark mixed forest. You can wander through large meadows, hear the calls of songbirds and seabirds, and look out toward Twin Lakes Beach and the ocean. Hikers and runners like its smooth paths. Dogs on leash are welcome.

No, it’s not particularly challenging, but it’s a pleasant walk alone or with your family.

Halfway through a 6/10-mile loop is a picnic table, a perfect place for a snack or lunch, with a wide view of the lagoon, waterfowl, and in the distance, Twin Lakes Beach. Continuing on the loop, you walk through a dark forest of interlaced branches, ivy, and deep grasses, then emerge into a giant meadow.
