From the 101 freeway in Agoura Hills, exit northbound on Kanan Road (away from the beach). Go 3 miles to Hollytree Drive and turn right. About 100 years ahead, turn into the parking lot for Oak Canyon Park. Walk around the pond to get to the start of the trail.
This is a great family hike, particularly for younger kids. There is a great pond with ducks, a lovely forested creek, and enough easy puddle jumper stream crossings to make it exciting for the kids. I really enjoyed this amazingly peaceful and lovely setting set in the middle of suburbia.
From the parking lot head down and around the pond to the fire road, which is our trail. Follow the trail north along the stream, crossing it several times. There are some interesting trees along the way that look like easy and safe climbing for the kids. At about the 3/4 mile mark, the trail crosses a paved path at the end of the park. This is our turn-around point. You can either head back to the car on paved bike path making it a loop hike, or just return down the trail
