STUNT RANCH SANTA MONICA MOUNTAINS RESERVE

The 310-acre reserve is rich in biodiversity and comprises a variety of ecosystems. Additionally, evidence of extensive early human habitation has been recovered at Stunt Ranch, and the reserve is recognized as archeologically significant land. Our multifunctional biological field station serves as a sustainable and inclusive learning space that accommodates the needs of our diverse visitors.

The reserve is available to university students, faculty, and researchers. We also encourage K-12 educational programs and local environmental-oriented outreach events to consider using the reserve. Contact us for details.

Stunt Ranch aims to be an actively used field station that supports outdoor education and California conservation science. Our staff work to create an inclusive environment that respects all peoples and cultures. The reserve encourages programs/initiatives that highlight the reserve as an archeological site for the Gabrielino/Tongva and Chumash peoples.
