What is known as the “Hike to the Cross” is located within Grant Park in Ventura, California.
It offers 360 degree views that provide you with an opportunity to visually drink up and absorb everything from the hills around Ventura to the stunning Pacific Ocean.
The “hike” itself requires very little physical effort, but meanders nicely amongst the expanding trails within the adjoining Ventura Botanical Gardens.
Grant Park offers sufficient parking (although you can expect some company for each glorious sunset).
Each visitor here seems to soak up the experience in an individualized manner, but no matter how you choose to enjoy this experience, we’d recommend that you take a moment to stand, sit, or kneel at the foot of the cross…and reflect.
And that’s…Henry’s Take.
