Hike Description:

This is an easy hike to a gorgeous viewpoint overlooking the Napa valley. It's 4.4 miles roundtrip and an elevation gain of 500 feet. We will meet at the Robert Louis Stevenson parking lot. From Highway 29 in downtown Calistoga drive 8.5 miles northeast up the winding mountain road. The parking lot is right at the mountains summit. It is the same parking lot used for the St. Helena Hike. If anyone wants to car pool from Healdsburg. I can pick you up at 7:30 at Big Johns Supermarket. This hike is very interesting. You start through a forest and soon find yourself surrounded by natural volcanic rock sculptures..of course the end is terrific with a sweeping view.

As always:

•Bring plenty of water
•Wear comfortable hiking shoes
•Dress in layers as the hike will start off cool but warm up when we leave the forest
•We will stay at the viewpoint for about 10 minutes..bring a snack if you like
•Arrive early as we will head out on the trail promptly at 8:30
•Check your email the night before the hike just to make sure there haven't been any necessary adjustments to the hike!
Hope to see you on the trail!
