Sunset Hikes
Friends and family can walk in Filoli’s woodlands by the light of the setting sun and experience the tranquility of Filoli’s Nature Preserve at dusk. This is the ideal time of day to spot Filoli’s resident wildlife and bring cameras and binoculars. Filoli’s Nature Preserve has more than 7 miles of trails crisscrossing 6 different types of native California habitat. The two-hour, docent-led hike covers approximately 3 miles of well-maintained trails and at times it can be strenuous. Experienced Nature Education Docents describe wildlife, plants, endangered species and the historical background of the area.  Children ages 5 and older are welcome; strollers cannot be accommodated on the trails.  Wear sturdy shoes.  Visitors may not hike without a Docent.

Orchard Walks
Filoli has the largest heirloom orchard in private hands in the United States.  It is 6.8 acres and includes more than 600 fruit trees, many of them are rare.  During the docent-led tour of this unique orchard, visitors are able to taste fruit (when available) right off the tree, learn about the tradition of how Filoli is conserving not only the rare fruits and trees, but also this defining landscape feature of this country estate.  Wear sturdy shoes.
