Celebrate the autumnal equinox on a late afternoon, moderately-paced hike with Docent Naturalists Bobbie Riedel, Susan Dunn, and Mari Aldridge. You'll hike along the Hickory Oaks Trail and experience expansive views as you travel through grasslands and woodlands to emerge at each of the preserve's three hilltop benches. Pack a snack to enjoy as the sun starts to set on Turtle Rock before heading back. (Note: There is limited roadside parking at the Hickory Oaks trailhead; please carpool if possible.) Reservations are required and will be accepted on or after September 8 at 12:00 p.m. (Noon) and close October 19 at 2:00 p.m.
Meet at Hickory Oaks Roadside Parking; 5.1 miles south of Page Mill Road or 1.3 miles north of Highway 9 on the west side of Skyline Boulevard.
