La Cumbre Peak is a 3,995 foot (1,217 meters) peak in the Santa Ynez Mountains north of Santa Barbara, California. Made up of boulders and slabs of the Matilija Sandstone amid groves of pine trees, it is the highest summit near to the city.[1] Higher summits in the Santa Ynez Range can be found to the west (Santa Ynez Peak) and east (Divide Peak).
The road to the top – East Camino Cielo – is frequently used by runners and cyclists for training, as the elevation gain is substantial and sustained, while there is relatively little car traffic.
