Happy New Year and Happy January, everyone! This marks our 10th year of hosting an annual walk in January! Most years have been the Seven Bridges Walk through Balboa Park and surrounding areas. However with paid parking being enforced in Balboa Park (boo! ๐๐ฝ), I am wanting to pivot this year to a special hike Iโve been holding in my back pocket for some time now after several very fun adventures Iโve had at this park.
Presidio Park is so much more than just a white historical mission perched up on a hill. Other perks include:
- Beautiful scenic nature trails
- Free parking ๐ ฟ๏ธ
- Spectacular views of San Diego
- Moderate inclines that will get the blood pumping
- Historical landmarks worth seeing
- An opportunity to hear about some of San Diegoโs history from a professional tour guide during our snack breaks
- Dogs on leash are permitted
- Those views though! ๐ธ๐คณ๐ ๐
We will spend 2-3 hours at Presidio Park with built in breaks complete with group photos and a little historical narration. Please bring your own snacks, electrolytes, water, etc.
This hike is not the same as the one on AllTrails. Iโve customized it to be longer and a little harder (thatโs where the good stuff is๐). There will be exercise! ๐ถโโ๏ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ถ๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ถ๐พโโ๏ธ๐ถ๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐ถ๐ผ๐ถ๐ฟโโ๏ธ
This is a free hike that Iโm happy to organize for my friends and community. Tips are graciously accepted and appreciated ๐ (Venmo @djdaemia )
Please stay tuned for more details. This is only Part 1 of the day with an option to join us for lunch followed by a fun stroll through Heritage Park and Old Town. Since last January, I have become a tour guide in San Diego, and I would love to take you on a fun and memorable adventure through this town ๐
