Please join fellow BAWSC participants for a spring hike to get our legs and lungs into shape to hit the water this year!

This year's hike will take place in Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, located just north of Santa Cruz, in Felton.   This hike is intended to accommodate our South Bay BAWSC members.  This state park is well known for providing calm reflection among ancient giant redwoods and sunny sandhill ridges.  There is a mostly flat 0.8 mile hike that we can take from the parking area and visitor's center.

Directions & Parking  -  The park is located at 101 North Big Trees Park Road, Felton.   From Hwy 17, take the Mt. Herman Road exit.   Take Mt. Herman Road to the end at Graham Hill Road, turn right onto Graham Hill Road, then turn left onto Hwy 9.  The entrance for day use is 2 miles on the left.   There is a parking lot near the visitor's center.   Parking is $10 for a vehicle, and $9 for seniors 62 or older.   There is no BAWSC event fee for this event.  

Please try and carpool to this event using the club message board to arrange car-pools.  

We can meet in the parking area by the Visitor Center for the hike on the Redwood Grove Loop Trail.   The trail is marked on the map below in yellow with green dots.   We can then find picnic tables to hang out for lunch.   Please bring food/drinks for yourselves, and to share if you like.
