Enjoy amazing single track trails as you traverse up the slopes of North Peak which opens up to majestic views and Mt. Diablo’s famed waterfalls. The trail meanders through grassland meadows, majestic blue oaks, across streams and through giant manzanita groves. This is a moderate-difficult hike, about 5 miles round trip, 4 hours, with 1500′ elevation gain to the falls. Part of the trail is single track and steep in places (if you’re afraid of hiking on the edge of a steep canyon this may not be the hike for you) but worth the effort! Bring lunch. Heavy rain cancels. Please RSVP to smdinfo@savemountdiablo.org or 925-947-3535.

Meet at trailhead at the end of Regency Dr in Clayton.
From Ygnacio/Kirker Pass head east on Clayton Rd which becomes Marsh Creek Rd, turn right on Regency Drive – just past the Diablo View Middle School, follow to the end.
(Note: “199 Regency Drive, Clayton” is not a REAL address. It does, however, cause google to generate accurate maps to “the end of Regency Drive”. The closest landmark indicated on Google Maps is “The Poster Connection” at 43 Regency Drive, .4 miles away.)
