Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue. This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary. | |||||||
| Itinerary: | |||||||
Please join me for this approximately five to six - mile urban hike around Berkeley Lake, a short nature trail loop and potentially an additional stretch of streets. Our starting and finish point with be the Berkeley Lake City Hall parking lot. This hike is challenging with frequent hills and a 3 mph hiking speed. There are not a lot of pure flat stretches. The hike will take place on streets and sidewalks. Since there are cars, please wear light colored or reflective clothing. Fortunately, the traffic is usually infrequent with friendly drivers that slow down when they see walkers!
Required skills: Good attitude Ability to wave and say hello to the friendly drivers and residents Flexibility - This hike has a new addition to the route so the distance and ending time may slightly vary from what is stated. The hike length range is four & a half to six miles.
Additional Notes: A special thank you to Tom Jarosz for use of the promotional picture and map. Please refer to the additional notes section as well. Some of the route is not shown.
