The work is mostly weeding, sweeping, raking, and clipping. We will have gloves and tools available.

Think of this hike as one long UP and one long DOWN! This moderate hike takes us via many stairs, walkways, and paths up to Grizzly Peak Blvd. Then, we go even a little higher (!) before our descent. On a clear day, we will see some nice views of SF. 

For May’s installment of the Friday sunset hikes, we’ll explore the paths and streets south of the Marin Circle and then make our way uphill towards Berkeley’s marvelous Rose Garden. May is a wonderful time to experience this special place! The route is about 4 miles with 16 staircases and steep sidewalks.

On this walk, expect lots of uphill streets and stairs on this butt-kicker of a walk (then lots of downhill!). From the El Cerrito Plaza BART station, we’ll walk up to Arlington Park via as many hidden stairways as possible, then return via more paths and the PG&E property along Moeser Avenue.

This year’s long walk takes us to three lakes—Lake Merritt, Lake Temescal, and Lake Anza—via Oakland’s and Berkeley’s paths, trails, and parks. Grab your Clipper Card and join us for an East Bay fun day!
