Hiking Destinations in the Carmel, California, Area


Dr. Gregory Tapson established his Carmel, California, medical practice in 1996 and continues to oversee all patient and office activities. When he is not seeing to the personalized care of as many as 100 patients per month, Dr. Gregory Tapson enjoys leading an active lifestyle. He frequently exercises and enjoys hiking and golfing throughout the Carmel area.

Hiking enthusiasts living in and around Carmel do not have to travel far for an enjoyable outing. The Carmel River Beach Trail, for example, makes for an ideal outing for hikers in search of a relaxing, scenic journey. The one-mile trail travels between the Pacific Ocean and a number of stunning views of Carmel Point and Point Lobos. The trail is replete with picnic tables and other areas perfect for a meal or short rest before resuming the hike.

Mission Trail Park offers a more comprehensive, diverse hiking experience. With more than five miles of trails and 35 acres of nature to explore, Mission Trail Park allows hikers to get up close and personal with the region’s historic redwoods, not to mention impressive stands of oaks, pines, and eucalyptus. Mission Trail Park is also home to the Lester Rowntree Native Plant Garden and the historic Flanders Mansion, built in 1924.

Additional trails in the Carmel and Monterey region include those at Toro Park, Jacks Peak County Park, and Point Lobos State Reserve.
