: Hello Deer, I hope this reel finds you well. We weren’t just greeted by one, but dozens of deer — gracefully running through the trails like they owned the place (which, honestly, they kind of do). We spent the evening exploring Rancho San Antonio Preserve, one of my new favorite spots in the Bay Area for a dose of nature and wildlife. We started on the Lower Meadow Trail, then took the Mora Trail up to the viewpoint — a peaceful spot with sweeping hillside and bay views. Along the way there were so many deer just casually hanging out and crossing our path like locals on an evening stroll. Don’t miss a stop at Deer Hollow Farm too — a sweet little educational farm where you’ll find goats, cows, chickens, and more. It’s especially great for families, or anyone who just loves animals and a slower pace. It closes at 4pm. Whether you’re here for the hikes, the views, or the unexpected wildlife encounters, Rancho San Antonio always delivers! Tag your hiking buddy and save this for your next local trail day. #RanchoSanAntonio #BayAreaHikes #sfbayarea #bayarea #bayareanature #deer #losaltos #IGEditsChallenge
