Rocks and Rock Parks

Leader: John Ford
Meet: Northeast corner of The Alameda and Solano Avenue in Berkeley
Note: Unvaccinated adults and children must wear masks

Northeast Berkeley has quite a few rock outcroppings, mainly of a type of volcanic rock called rhyolite. Some of these have been turned into small parks, while others are in people’s yards or have been used in rock walls. We'll visit four different rock parks, each of which have great views, and two other parks that have some great rocks. Be prepared for steep paths and uneven footing on this 6- to 7-mile walk, which will take 3 to 3.5 hours at a brisk pace.
