Cerro San Luis Obispo is a majestic mountain located in San Luis Obispo, California that stands 1,292 feet tall. It's part of the Nine Sisters, a chain of peaks in the Santa Lucia Range. This beautiful hill offers scenic views of the surrounding area and is a great spot for activities like hiking, jogging, and mountain biking. The 3.9-mile out and back trail that goes up the mountain, is strenuous, but offers incredible views from the top.

One unique feature of Cerro San Luis Obispo is the presence of a large wooden stage on top of the west side. On the east face is a large "M" which represents Mission College Preparatory Catholic High School. Whether you're looking for a relaxing stroll or more daredevil activity, Cerro San Luis Obispo is an ideal destination.
