About Ishxenta State Park
Ishxenta State Park is an 1,315-acre (532 ha) California state park in the northern region of Big Sur, California, United States. San Jose Creek on the ranch was the site of an Ohlone village for thousands of years. Europeans first visited the site when the Portolá expedition camped at the site for 10 days in the winter of 1769. Ishxenta State Park is south of Carmel-by-the-Sea and east of Point Lobos State Reserve. It contains one of the world's largest stands of native Monterey pines, endangered Gowen cypress, and rare maritime chaparral plant communities.
