nicholas flat trail

Hike here from Leo Carillo state park trailhead and get a good uphill workout with gorgeous views. Or start at the top for a gentle walk. Beautiful large pond with ducks at Nicholas flat, provided there has been winter rains. Sadly it's been dry recently.

Nicholas Flats is a beautiful hike in Malibu. We did it with our 10 year old boys and they loved the challenge. From the top of this hike you see the entire ocean. There are also beautiful hidden flatlands on this hike. Kate Hamm was our guide. She is fantastic.

If you like hiking this is a fairly easy hike. Nice views and close to the beach.
