East Bay hike: East Bay Municipal Utility District on Watershed Land – FULL!
Saturday, August 30 | King Canyon Loop | 10:00am to 2:00pm
Rating: A moderate, 6-mile walk with about 1000 feet of elevation gain. There is one steep climb and descent on the hike.
Group: Open to all.
Notes: This hike takes us through old ranchland, now preserved as watershed. We’ll see what the East Bay was once like as we venture through abandoned orchards and past old homesteads. There are many native plants and trees along the trail, including madrones, coast redwoods, bays, and oaks. As we walk along riparian areas, we’ll be treated to varied birdlife, including egrets and herons. We’ll ascend a high ridge for beautiful views of the East Bay landscape.
Fees: This hike is full.
Leader: Ken Lavin
Rain Policy: Rain cancels
What to bring: Lunch, water, sturdy shoes, sun protection.
How to get there: We will meet at 10 am at the Valle Vista Trailhead in Moraga.
From Highway 24 in Orinda, take the Orinda/Moraga Exit and go southeast on Camino Pablo, which become Moraga Way. After 4.6 miles, turn right onto Canyon Road. After 1.1 miles, turn left into the Valle Vista parking area.
