This is a moderately strenuous 1.26-mile guided hike, so please bring water, wear comfortable shoes, and dress appropriately for the weather. As much as we love our furry friends, please leave your pets at home because they can be a distraction, and can scare away natures's critters. 

There is a $2 park entrance fee unless you are an Open Space Volunteer, or have an Annual Pass. Parking is limited so carpool if you can.
