Looking for a pleasant Sunday evening urban hike to finish off your weekend festivities? If so, join us for this 7.4 mile urban loop hike, with hills and curves, around Berkeley Lake.  After the first loop (3.7 miles), we will hike the loop in reverse (3.7 miles).  Our starting and finish point with be the Berkeley Lake City Hall parking lot, across the street from Lake Berkely Chapel.  

This is a paved street hike with only a partial sidewalk section, so please be sure to wear reflective or bright clothing. There is some local neighborhood road traffic, but generally very light. You are responsible for your own safety.

Lake Berkeley has been named a Tree City USA for 18 years!  This neighborhood lake area tends to get cooler in the evening, sometimes with a gentle breeze.  The surrounding area is also pleasantly shaded and a place you can capture the sunset and natural reflections off the lake.  

 

Additional Notes: 

To receive AOC credit you will need to complete both loops.
