For this installment of evening Friday hikes we are exploring whimsical Point Richmond - a fun, hilly, Bay-front neighborhood just south of the Richmond Bridge. The golden hour is the best time to check out the Point's wonderful Wave Garden, a magical space with beautiful sculptures, landscaping, and views. We'll also wander on hidden stairs and paths to Keller Beach and to 'Little Point Richmond', the Bay Area's absolute BEST collection of fairy houses. Join us!
Meet in the small park at the corner of Park Place and Washington Avenue in historic downtown Point Richmond. Metered street parking is usually available. We'll go at a moderate pace and take breaks as needed to enjoy the views and the conversations. Bring water and a snack if you'd like. We'll return at the starting point shortly after sunset. For those interested in hanging out longer, we're planning to grab a bite at Masa after the walk.
