Nature Walk in Redwood Regional Park
This lovely pavement and wide dirt track leads us into lovely redwoods after crossing sunny meadows along side the stream that is the spine to Redwood Regional Park. Most of the ancient redwoods were harvested in the 1800's but the children of those trees thrive now in this beautiful setting. The trail is easy and straight forward. It runs about 1.5 in so round trip is close to 3 miles. Pavement part of the trail ends about 1.0 miles so wheel chairs might consider turning back at that point.
Transportation options: Carpools can meet at the Rockridge BART station on the east side of College Avenue at the corner of Broadway Terrace. You can arrange carpools if you register for the event on the A.V. calendar. You will then receive a reminder email which will let you know how to connect drivers with riders.
