About the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District

Calendar of Activities

Enjoy the many free Outdoor Activities on Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District preserves. All activities are led by trained volunteer docents and are free of charge. Some activities require reservations. Please refer to the Reservation Information page for full details.

Please Note the Following Changes to the Reservation Process:


In response to an increase of participant no-shows, and in an effort to improve attendance rates, the reservation process has been changed. Reservations for a given activity will now only be accepted within the two-week time period prior to the activity date. The maximum number of people allowed for a group reservation is four (4) people. The online reservation forms will be activated in the individual listings two weeks prior to the date of the activity.

  • If your plans have changed after you have made a reservation and you are no longer able to attend, please let us know so that we can release your reservation to someone else.

  • For all activities, heavy rain at the activity location will cancel that activity. In the event of light rain or the threat of rain, the docent will make the decision at the designated meeting time and location.

  • Please note that emails and voicemails regarding activities are not monitored after hours or over the weekends, but will be processed the next business day.
