Next Up: The Forest of Nisene Marks!
Saturday, April 20th, gather at 10:45am
Note: There is no walk in March, as that date is the Equinox Picnic!
Directions: Not the main entrance to the park! This is within the boundaries of Nisene Marks State Park, but off in a corner of the park that most people know nothing about. There is a small creek at the turnaround spot for this walk. You might bring a small towel, if you feel like splashing around.
Southbound Soquel Avenue, just past Cabrillo College, in Aptos. Turn Left onto Vienna Drive. Continue on Vienna all the way till it ends (about 1 mile). Turn left onto Wilshire Drive. This will end in half-a-block at Danube Drive. Park anywhere on these two streets. Our meet-up spot is the intersection of Wilshire and Danube. The trailhead is right next door.
Bring water and a snack to share. Masks are encouraged, but not mandatory.
We walk in silence on the way in – doing so brings Nature so much closer to us, as we take in not only the sights, but the sounds and even smells of a nice country walk.
At a turnaround spot we will rest and share food.
Then we gab like magpies all the way back. It’s always a great time.
Check ahead to make sure the walk is happening! Poor weather may cancel a walk. Info@communityseed.org or leave us a voicemail at (831) 469-0336
Please join us, and if you have any semi-secluded spots you’d like us to explore (nothing too strenuous), please let us know!
The August hike along the coastal bluffs at Wilder Ranch was enchanting. Thank you so much Angus. Looking forward to Fall Creek.
