Why are flowers and plants important? Did you know plants "trick" animals into helping them grow? Join Docent Naturalists Roberta and Jaime Cavazos, Annie Guo, and Bill Bauriedel on a family-friendly and leisurely-paced hike into different habitats to discover amazing facts about plants and flowers. You'll do a fun activity to see how bees help with pollinating flowers and other plants. Bring a snack to enjoy along the trail.

Where to Meet

Meet at the Russian Ridge Parking Area on the northwest corner of the Skyline Boulevard (Highway 35) and Page Mill/Alpine Road intersection (across Skyline Blvd. on the right). Those traveling from I-280 on Page Mill Rd. should allow approximately 40 minutes travel time.
