Upper Rockridge

Leaders: Robert Johnson and Janet Byron
Meet: Rockridge BART station at the bottom of the escalators, near large “Rockridge” sign.
Note: Unvaccinated persons must wear masks. We are monitoring mask guidance and will update our website with additional requirements if needed.

Bob Johnson and Janet Byron shared their virtual tour, "Bungalows, palaces, and paths: Exploring Upper Rockridge," in May. Now’s your chance to do the tour in person! We will stroll along tree-lined streets with early-20th-century Craftsman bungalows off College Avenue and the commercial district south of Rockridge BART. Then we climb into the hills above Broadway to explore the residential areas, including a part burned and rebuilt after the disastrous 1991 fire. There will be views, mansions, gardens, and public stairways.

This walk will cover 3 miles and last 2 hours.
