Event Details
Submitted by the Event Organizer
Explore nature and history as you stroll Cerrito Creek and climb Albany Hill with three expert guides.
From Native Americans to ranchos, dynamite, gambling, and a century of citizen effort to save this urban oasis, this area has a fascinating history. It also has remarkable diversity of plants and animals that you can enjoy and learn about — including how to help protect them in an uncertain future.
This walk will cover only a little over a mile at a leisurely to moderate pace, but we will climb 310′ ft. Albany Hill on a dirt trail with steps (descending on a more moderate service road). Wear sturdy shoes with good traction and bring sticks of you use them. Bring water and a small snack. It is easy to avoid poison oak, but we recommend long pants and long sleeves.
