About the event
If you’re new to hiking (or just new to us), this is your invitation to jump in. And if you’re part of the crew—you already know this one’s a gem. We’ll hike a 2-mile loop in Sycamore Valley Regional Open Space, starting behind the Rock Church in Danville. It’s got just enough climb to wake up your legs, but it’s short, sweet, and ends with that “I’m so glad I showed up” glow.
We’ll start with a 15-minute uphill (no rush—we regroup at the top), then cruise into a flat, scenic trail with views of Mount Diablo, Las Trampas, and Livermore. Perfect for starting your week with fresh air, friendship, and the reminder that taking care of yourself doesn’t have to be another box to check.
