| Tangerine Falls Trailhead is located in Montecito, California, and is a popular destination for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts. The trailhead is located near the base of the Santa Ynez Mountains and offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape. | |
| The Tangerine Falls Trail is a moderately challenging hiking trail that leads hikers through a picturesque canyon and up to Tangerine Falls, a beautiful waterfall that cascades over a rocky cliff face. The trail is approximately 2.5 miles roundtrip and is rated as moderate in difficulty, with some steep sections and rocky terrain. The trailhead is located in the front of the Sheffield Reservoir and leads hikers through a shaded canyon and alongside a small stream. Hikers will encounter several stream crossings and may need to hop over rocks to continue on the trail. As hikers near the top of the canyon, the trail becomes steeper and more challenging, with several switchbacks leading up to the base of Tangerine Falls. Tangerine Falls is a multi-tiered waterfall that is particularly stunning after a rainfall when the flow of water is at its strongest. Visitors can swim in the pool beneath the waterfall or simply relax and enjoy the peaceful sound of the cascading water. Please note that the Tangerine Falls Trail can be muddy and slippery, particularly after rainfall, so visitors should wear appropriate footwear and exercise caution while hiking. Additionally, parking near the trailhead can be limited, so visitors are advised to arrive early or consider carpooling to the trailhead. | |
