Welcome to OHC!
Day Hikes in the Bay Area: The Orinda Hiking Club is a group of active hikers. Most of us live in the East Bay, but we hike all over the Bay Area. We offer hikes that vary in degree of length, difficulty, terrain and scenery, ranging from short urban “street strolls” to 10+ mile “extreme” hikes in the East Bay, North Bay, South Bay and Peninsula.
Hikes are scheduled every Saturday and three Sundays of each month, year-round. An additional hike is scheduled the first Wednesday of each month. Street Strolls are scheduled the third Thursday of each month. The hike schedule is posted on our website.
We welcome anyone 18 or over to come hike with us. Dogs are not allowed on club hikes.
Domestic and International Hiking Trips: In addition to our year-round day hiking schedule in the Bay Area, we offer a variety of hiking trips in the United States and in other countries. The trips are usually between one and three weeks long, organized by volunteer OHC co-leaders and sometimes with the help of a hiking tour company. Trips are open to all members, but for trips where demand exceeds space availability a system of priority has been established, posted on the website.
Club Newsletter: We issue a quarterly newsletter to our members that includes the day hike schedule and announcements for trips.
