This moderately paced walk features fine architecture, an unusual view of the Claremont Hotel, bits of history, the neighborhoods affected by the 1991 fire, and of course a few paths. There is some uphill and a couple of stairways but overall no long steep uphill walking. It starts in front of the Ellington & French shop at the northeast corner of Domingo Avenue and Tunnel Road and goes back and forth along the Berkeley/Oakland border.
