City Walk Chocolate, 6.9 miles

Chocolate for the Holidays. West Houston Galleria area is our walk today with an array of Galleria experiences: from the finest chocolate to the priciest of everything you ever even thought you wanted, and the holiday Galleria traffic from outside the car. On the way back we will go through the West Oaks neighborhood right as the holiday lights are switching on. It should be cool enough to carry a box of chocolates without hazard.

Leave your dags at home this time: everybody knows chocolate is bad for them!

Parking: Come early and give yourself time to park.

Wear comfortable shoes and bring plenty of water. The heat in Texas is always a concern so let someone know if you are having a hard time. For more information about hiking check out this very useful hiking website: https://www.hatsandmore.org/
