Join Midpen partner Latino Outdoors for their Signs of Spring Hike on Sunday, March 24th at 10am at Picchetti Ranch Open Space Preserve.

The Zinfandel Trail ducks into the forest, crossing seasonal creeks and connecting with Stevens Creek County Park. Join us as we enjoy a hike in the forested canyons of madrone, coast live oak and California bay and observe some signs of spring.

Things to keep in mind:

  • The hike is 4.1 miles long with 620 ft in elevation gain, it is considered a moderately challenging route. Check out the trail here.
  • No pets allowed.
  • We will provide a light lunch and snacks!
  • Please arrive early to find parking. We'll be meeting at the Picchetti Ranch Parking Lot.
  • Please bring sun protection (sun screen/hat), plenty of water, and comfortable clothing/shoes, and dress in layers.

Please use the Eventbrite registration link to sign up to attend.
