About the event
Ready for some stunning East Bay views? We’re hitting the Upper Rim Trail at Lafayette Reservoir—a rolling 5 mile loop that delivers wide-open skies, steady climbs, and those “wow” vistas that make you feel small in the best way.
We’ll start in the main lot and hike clockwise, finishing where we began. This one’s a solid mid-distance adventure with about 900 ft of elevation gain spread across several steep-but-doable hills. You’ll feel it—but in that I’m stronger than I thought kind of way.
Expect leg-burning climbs, sweeping views, and the kind of fresh air that clears your head and resets your week.
