Mount Wanda Hiking and Exploring Named after his eldest daughter, Mt. Wanda is 326 acres of oak woods and grasslands. The Muir family never used it for fruit production, but as an escape for the daughters to take nature walks with "Papa". Explore the hills where John Muir hiked with his two daughters, Wanda and Helen. Mount Wanda is open daily sunrise to sunset. Please come prepared, as no water or toilet facilities are available. Pets are permitted on a leash. Bicycles and horses are allowed on fire roads only. To access Mt. Wanda, travel mile south from the visitor center on Alhambra Avenue to the trail head parking lot next to Franklin Canyon Road.

Tips
Mount Wanda is open to the public from sunrise to sunset, unless otherwise noted on guided trours or events. All pets must be on a leash. Owners must clean up after pets.
