A shout out to Gene Meyers! A fellow Berkeley Path Wanderer who has a blog on the website including lots of 1 to 2 hour hikes. This walk is a version of his 'Rose Garden to Grizzly Peak...and Back' walk.
We walk from the Berkeley Rose Garden on streets, stairs, and paths all the way UP to Grizzly Peak Blvd! We then start our way down, but take a few more stairs UP along the way for extra credit! We walk on some steep stairs (both UP and DOWN) so you will definitely get your heart rate up!
