About this event
|
Sunday, Mar. 1, 10:30 am
Redwood Regional Park, Oakland (wheelchair accessible)
Do you have some free time for welcoming spring?
How about a wheelchair accessible walk, as well as longer and more ‘primitive’ walks, on the network of trails at Stream Trail Redwood Regional in Oakland?
Friends and family are welcome. 10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Audre and Roger Newman will lead a wheelchair accessible walk along the Stream Trail in Redwood Regional Park, 7867 Redwood Rd, Oakland, CA. We will meet at the north end of the parking lot which is about a quarter of a mile beyond the kiosk within the “Redwood Gate”. This entry is located off the north side of Redwood Road about 2.25 miles east of Skyline Blvd.
The trail is paved for the first mile first passing thorough meadows and picnic areas on the floor of the valley, then entering a magnificent forest with towering redwoods, arching bay trees, and lush ferns. Here the trail is packed dirt, but still wide and with little elevation gain, following tiny Redwood Creek. There are several steeper and more challenging trails which branch off from the Stream Trail which provide alternatives for those who have more energy to burn.
We will have lunch in Montclair afterwards.
Bring: Water, snack, and hiking poles if you normally use them on
walks. Expect variable weather: Bring sun protection (hat or sunscreen)
as well as jacket for possible colder or windier weather
