RANGER PROGRAM: Brushy Peak 2-mile Lowlands Adventure

Explore the magical parkland owned by LARPD known as Brushy Peak Regional Preserve, which is only open to the public on ranger-led tours.

This hike does NOT reach the peak but includes an exploration of unique sandstone rock formations, an introduction to the Native Ohlone, Bay Miwok, and Delta Yokuts cultures associated with the site, and an opportunity to view the plants and animals that live or visit this area.

This easy Brushy Peak hike will cover approximately 2 miles and does not include the final ascent to the peak. If you are interested in the more strenuous 4-mile hike over dirt & rocky trails with an elevation gain of 800+ feet, please register for the 4 Mile Brushy Peak Summit Hike.

Participants must stay with the group. Under age 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult. Canceled if raining. Trip time estimate: 4- to 5-hours – depends on the group's hiking speed and how much exciting stuff we stop to check out! 

Meet at the Robert Livermore Community Center's large parking lot next to the community gardens at 491 Loyola Way. Participants will then drive themselves to the park. Carpooling is encouraged.
