What we’re about
The purpose of San Francisco Walking Dykes group is: to build community for lesbians in San Francisco and the Greater Bay Area while promoting health and wellness. Walking together provides a relaxed way to meet one another and also have fun while doing something healthy! Lesbians of all ages and walking ability are invited, though most members of the group are over 50.
Time: usually Saturdays at 11:00 AM but check each week for details
Meeting Place: It varies, although most walks start at The Conservatory of Flowers In Golden Gate Park (main entrance at the top of the stairs). Golden Gate Park is well known, easy to find and provides many beautiful paths and places to walk throughout the year. It is accessible for those who drive and for those who use public transportation. There are several public bathrooms and places to get water and beverages.
Ability: The women who show up define the walk (pace, endurance, etc.). In other words, the group defines the walk and not the other way around. So, you don't need to be able to hike for several hours (although it's fine if you can) or climb steep hills. You just need to be able to walk with us at a reasonable pace. Walks will be modified for persons in electric wheelchairs.
Weather Conditions and Meetings: If the weather is really nasty, most folks just won't come that day and it is understood that bad weather is reason for last minute cancellation.
