In the Field

ClifBarBay Nature In the Field sponsored through June 30, 2013 by Clif Bar & Company.

Throughout the year, Bay Nature Institute organizes guided walks, hikes, and other types of outings to some of the parks and open spaces that we cover in the magazine. We find expert guides who can provide a deeper understanding of the places we visit, from Henry W. Coe State Park near Gilroy, to Fort Funston in San Francisco, to Tomales Dunes in West Marin.

These outings are without charge, except for fees for parking, park entrance, transport, or equipment rental (as in the case of kayak outings). Reservations are required for most outings and they almost always fill to their limit well before the date. To find out in advance about upcoming hikes, subscribe to the magazine and/or sign up on our hikes email list by writing to hikes@baynature.org.

Better yet, become a member of Bay Nature’s Publisher’s Circle with a donation of $500 or more, and receive priority spaces on all Bay Nature In the Field programs, as well as invitations to exclusive hikes and special events.
