Cloverdale Ranch Open Space Preserve is an ecological jewel on the San Mateo County coast, and Midpen's newest preserve established in 2023. This vast landscape includes large tracts of biologically rich coastal grassland and coastal scrub habitats that support a rich community of native plants and wildlife, including many rare species. The Wilbur’s Watch Trail is open to the public, and traverses through coastal scrub and grasslands from Highway 1 to a lookout point for viewing the coastline and Pigeon Point lighthouse. Visit the preserve page for detailed information about preserve use, accessibility, and amenities.
