de Oro State Park features over 8,000 acres of rugged cliffs,
secluded sandy beaches, coastal plains, streams, canyons, and
hills - with 1,347-foot Valencia Peak. Naturalists and backpackers
enjoy the solitude and freedom found along the park’s trails.
There are also mountain biking and equestrian trails.
The best-known beach
is Spooner's Cove, across from the campground. The park's name,
"Mountain of Gold," comes from the golden wildflowers
that bloom in spring. Wildlife in the park includes black tailed
deer and the black oystercatcher. The park includes primitive
and equestrian campsites.
