Leader: Sandy Friedland
Distance: 4.75 miles
Elevation gain: none
Accessibility: One crossing of railroad tracks and a short section of an uneven dirt path  in Aquatic Park; Restrooms at the start and in Emeryville about a mile later. No dogs, please.

From the largest mural in Berkeley to a tiny handprint in Emeryville, this walk is full of surprises! In addition to lots of public art, we’ll pass chic new architecture, whimsical utility boxes, artist co-ops, some fascinating light industry, and even a path where you’ll be counted as a pedestrian. We’ll walk the length of Aquatic Park — watching out for frisbee golfers  —  and check out the enormous new Berkeley Commons as well as many recent improvements to the park. You can stop at 4th Street for lunch or follow Sandy back to Standard Fare, passing the “Bull Fighter Academy” along the way.
