Silver Lake Walk Club Griffith Park Hike and Winter Solstice Ornament Excha

Celebrate the winter solstice with a gentle morning hike to the Griffith Observatory and a sweet ornament exchange with Silver Lake Walk Club!

We will meet at The Trails Cafe for coffee, community, and a relaxed start before heading up the trail together.

This hike is very easy and great for beginners. At the end of the hike we will gather at Ferndell Park to exchange wrapped ornaments in a cozy and festive moment. This event is rain or shine.
