Take Highway 17 to Patchen Pass, Exit at Summit Dr., and go southeast on Summit Drive. Go 10 miles as Summit becomes Highland Way to a parking spot with a small green 'Soquel Demonstration State Forest' sign. There is a weird right-left at Mt Bache Road and Spanish Ranch Road, but it is hard to get lost.

You can park on Highland, or make a right on Hihn's Mill fireroad- there is a small lot by the gate to the fireroad.

Use caution on Highland- it's narrow, and there have historically been landslides on the road. As of 8/04, the road was passable.
