Fort Ord National Monument Trails (and roads) are closed from 30 minutes after sunset to 30 minutes before sunrise.

Description

This is a gravel road that winds along Sandstone Ridge and finally dead ends at Trail 22 and Trail 60. It is gravel so watch your speed on the turns. There are some nice views and you can see the Salinas Valley, the old Army Ammo Bunkers and even out to Monterey Bay and the smoke stacks at Moss Landing on a clear day.

This road is rolling so there are some small climbs and descents and flat sections. Take Trail 22 to continue along the ridge (part of the Sea Otter course in current years) or down Trail 60 (The Beach) which was part of the Sea Otter in past years. Both trails drop you onto Crescent Bluff Road.
