Ballard Canyon Road

[Max Rockatansky]

Ballard Canyon Road is an approximately seven-mile-long rural highway located in the Santa Ynez Valley region of Santa Barbara County.  The roadway traverses the namesake Ballard Canyon from the outskirts of Los Olivos southwest to California State Route 246 in Buellton.  Ballard Canyon Road is named after the Santa Ynez Valley community of Ballard and was once part of Rancho San Carlos de Jonata.  The original purpose of Ballard Canyon Road was to connect to the Foxen Canyon Road with the Lompoc Road.
