Beach hike - South Bay

http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/e/1/b/d/600_449637789.jpeg

This hike repeats weekly for the month of May. We start at the top of the stairs near the parking lot and restrooms at Esplanade and Catalina just south of RB Pier and walk south and back 1.75 miles each way along the Marvin Braude Bike Trail.

There is a ramp or stairs about every 100 feet or so. We'll walk up and down each set of stairs (including THE stairs at Avenue C) and the ramps we pass both ways. This is a great conditioning workout for hiking hills.

Want something less strenuous? Walk the flat bike path or the street path at your own pace and fitness level. We'll meetup at the end to decide if we want to get coffee or something to eat.

~ 3.5 miles (more if you include the ups and downs)

~ 1.5 - 2 hours

Look for my fuschia (hot pink) Nike cap.

Parking:
Meters at the lot (bring quarters) or free on the surrounding streets.

LA Hiking Group Meetups are a lot of fun. Lots of friendly, single people, mostly 40+.

You can text me if you miss us at the start and I'll tell you where we are. 3109087205
