State Scenic Highway 150 covers Route 150 between U.S. 101 and Santa Paula, the road linking California's coast to the Ojai Valley. Running from near the Ventura-Santa Barbara county line to State Route 126 in Santa Paula, and known locally as Santa Paula-Ojai Road and Ojai Road along different stretches, it climbs gently through citrus groves and oak-studded hills before dropping into the small resort town of Ojai, long known for its artist community and mountain backdrop. The corridor has been recognized as having outstanding scenic qualities and sits on California's list of highways eligible for State Scenic Highway status, though it has not received the official designation itself, since that requires local governments to adopt a corridor protection plan. The drive is popular with cyclists training in the hills around Ojai, and offers views back toward the Topatopa Mountains that ring the valley.
