Únase a LandPaths y la ciudad de Petaluma para una caminata al atardecer es una experiencia mágica en la naturaleza. Mientras el sol se desliza lentamente hacia el horizonte, los colores cálidos pintan el cielo y las sombras danzan en los senderos. Mientras el paisaje se sumerge en tonos dorados y naranjas, el crepúsculo crea una atmósfera tranquila y serena, proporcionando un fondo perfecto para disfrutar de la naturaleza en su máxima expresión. ¡Una aventura que captura la esencia de la naturaleza en su momento más pintoresco!

Join LandPaths, Feminist Bird Club, and Ag + Open Space District in this hike around the beautiful Chanslor Ranch to see the birds of the Sonoma Coast. This outing is part of LandPaths' new Branch Out series, centering LGBTQ+ community members with the purpose of creating a sense of belonging and inclusive spaces in the outdoors.

The summer solstice brings change on Sonoma Mountain, as the trees darken and the grass dries. The creeks should still be flowing well from Spring rains. There also should be change ahead for the City of Petaluma's management of this historic property. Explore and discuss with docent Larry Modell, a long-time advocate for public open space. This 270-acre property is the only publicly owned land on the west side of Sonoma Mountain. Under contract with the City of Petaluma, Landpaths has been leading hikes on the land to introduce groups to its history and natural features since the summer of 2022. The hiking terrain ranges from broad, gentle meadows to steep challenging hillsides. We’ll enjoy spectacular views of the Petaluma Valley, stretching southwards to Mt. Tamalpais and Mt. Diablo, all the way to San Francisco. The trail passes through groves of venerable oak and bay trees along the Adobe Creek, with a total elevation gain of 500’. You'll enjoy panoramic vistas, and a babbling, perennial stream. The hike will be above the creek up to a vista point at the mid-point meadow, where we will stop to enjoy the panoramic views and snacks before returning to our cars. If you have any questions, please contact Roxy at roxy@landpaths or call 707-544-7284 ext 103.Upon registration you will receive an email with the exact location, driving directions, and parking information. If you don't get the email check your spam before giving us a call!
