About Cholame Hills
The Cholame Hills are a relatively small mountain range located in central California. The range is characterized by rolling hills, steep canyons, and sparse vegetation, typical of the chaparral and oak woodland ecosystems common in this part of the state. Elevations range from around 1,000 feet to just over 3,000 feet, with the highest point being Cholame Peak at 3,070 feet. The terrain is rugged and can be challenging for outdoor recreation, with a mix of well-maintained trails and more remote, overgrown routes.
