Milagra Ridge Trail starts at the end of a small residential street off of Sharp Park Rd in Pacifica. Start by going left, up the stairs at the gate, and pass the fenced in reservoir area to your right.

Follow the path, keep left at all times and close to the edge for great views of the Pacifica Pier. On a clear day you can even see as far as Mori Point and Pedro Point.

Continue by staying close to the left edge, until you see a WWII fortification up the hill to your right, then climb up there and cross over to the roped in summit area. From there, complete the loop by hiking back on the paved path, which leads straight back to the gate.
