SUMMARY:Let's Go Outdoors! San Jose Creek 2-mile Hike | April 5
DESCRIPTION:Join Big Sur Land Trust for a gentle 2-mile guided hike along the San Jose Creek Trail. \nEvery step of this hike was made possible through our partnership with the Monterey Peninsula Regional Park District\, California State Parks\, and Point Lobos Foundation as collaborative members of the Lobos Corona Parklands project — along with generous donors and funders. Shuttles will transport hikers from Palo Corona Regional Park (Rancho Cañada) to the Ishxenta State Park San Jose Creek trailhead\, which is only accessible through guided hikes. From there\, we will meander up the gentle incline along San Jose Creek\, looking for early wildflowers along the way. After crossing over San Jose Creek’s three magnificent redwood bridges\, we will arrive at the meadow that will be our turnaround point. This hike is a beautiful reminder that collaboration can bring beautiful change and that our actions are stronger when taken together. We are grateful to our partners and to our donors for each step forward that we take together. \nRegister >>

SUMMARY:Guided Hike: Mitteldorf Preserve to Joshua Creek (10.5mi) | April 29
DESCRIPTION:Whether you have hiked this region a hundred times or whether you are new to the area\, this guided “adventure hike” is one you won’t want to miss! This all-day hike loops through several conserved lands along the Central Coast: Santa Lucia Preserve\, Mitteldorf Preserve\, Patriarch Ridge\, Joshua Creek Canyon Ecological Reserve\, and Palo Corona Regional Park. Access to the backcountry of Palo Corona Regional Park and Joshua Creek Canyon Ecological Reserve is not offered to self-guided hikers through Big Sur Land Trust’s hiking program\, so this is a unique opportunity to explore the mosaic of conserved lands in this area. This magical trek will highlight the importance of individuals and groups working together to conserve and care for the lands they love. \nThis is a full-day guided hike taking place on April 23 and on April 29. With travel time\, this event will last from roughly 8am-5pm each day. Total elevation gain (ascent): Approximately 2\,600ft. Three hills\, including one long\, steep hill climbing 1\,500ft. Given the strenuous nature of this hike\, the varied terrain you will encounter\, and the possibility for extremes in temperature\, we ask you to carefully consider your personal health and fitness level before signing up for this guided opportunity. An elevational profile diagram will be coming soon to show how hilly this hike will be. Hikers will be expected to carry their own water and snacks\, and to pack a lunch. No restrooms are available in the backcountry\, so please plan accordingly and bring necessary supplies to leave no trace. Shuttle and carpool logistics will be confirmed. \nLearn more and register >>
