Evening Hike to Kite Hill

Date:  Saturday, June 17, 2017

Meet: 4:00pm at the Fairfax Library

Difficulty:  Moderate to Strenuous (there are some steep and slippery sections)

Distance: ~ 3 miles

From the Fairfax Library we’ll hike up Marinda Drive to the Marinda Fire Road to Kite Hill. We’ll get stunning views of the San Francisco skyline, Mt. Tamalpais, and the East Bay. We’ll hike downhill along the eastern border of the Hawthorne Canyon Open Space, and walk some of the winding streets at the edge of Fairfax and San Anselmo. There are some steep and slippery sections on the uphill leg, so be prepared to dig in. Optional post-hike gathering at Pancho Villa’s!

of citizens, the land is now public open space.
