Yay!! Though We Walk (and Hike) through the Valley of Heart's Delight....
we also go to concerts, tour local historic spots, dine out, and get to know out-of-the-way places around and beyond that Silicon Valley, seeing why it was known as "The Valley of Heart's Delight" and helping to keep it that way where possible.

Our activities strive to be low-budget and exercise-oriented but include splurges and day trips.

While we constantly dream of and sometimes strive towards being rapid, long-distance hikers, we really aren't. We accommodate a variety of levels of hikers and don't mind if the sturdier and slimmer zoom along ahead of us.


Dogs are occasionally welcome; If an event is not described as dog-friendly, please don't plan on bringing your four-legged friend; some members are allergic.






Our calendar -- in brown rather than green -- are "notes," not "events." "Notes" alert you to an activity that none of the organizers is able to attend and host, but sound too good for us not to let you know about so you can go on your own.

For events which allow only a limited number of attendees, please only sign up if you are really planning to attend absent illness or emergency.
