The Trail Most Simi Valley Residents Drive Past Every Day

Summary

Most people in Simi Valley drive past this two-mile stretch of the Arroyo Simi Greenway every day without giving it a second thought. But my wife Rachel and I decided to change that. We hopped on our electric scooters and took a casual tour of Phase 1 of the Greenway, from Sequoia Avenue to Erringer Road. Along the way, we learned some interesting history about this trail. It was funded by a mix of state and local money, and took a while to complete - but the timing ended up being pretty fortuitous. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we noticed that foot traffic on the Greenway went way up as people looked for safe outdoor spaces to get some exercise and fresh air. It’s just a simple, pleasant two-mile stretch, but it’s a nice little piece of Simi Valley that’s worth knowing about. We had a great time exploring it, and we’re excited to share what we learned with you.
