About Irish Hills
The Irish Hills are a small mountain range located in central California, situated just inland from the Pacific Ocean. The range is characterized by rolling, grassy hills and steep, rugged canyons, with elevations generally ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 feet above sea level. The terrain is dominated by chaparral vegetation, with scattered oak woodlands and coniferous forests at higher elevations. The range's proximity to the ocean results in a Mediterranean climate, with cool, wet winters and warm, dry summers.
