Hike Mount St. Helena in Stevenson State Park

October 23, 2010

This is a new hike for the Outdoor Adventure Club!

 

Summit Mount St. Helena near Calistoga in the North Bay! Mount St. Helena is reaches 4,304 feet making it the highest peak accessible by trail in the Bay Area. The hike is considered strenuous due to the steady climb and 11.2 miles of trail out and back. However, the hard work is rewarded by majestic views from the peak. On a clear day you can see the skyscrapers on San Francisco to the south and Lassen Peak to the north.

 

Along the way, you'll see rock formations jutting from the hillside, manzanita and seasonal wildflowers, and you may even catch a glimpse of peregrine falcons, which nest in the park. We'll also serve up a delicious picnic lunch along the way.

 

Meet new friends, explore the trails with experienced guides and make this weekend count!
