Welcome,

We’re a welcoming SCVHikers group that has been organizing hikes in the Santa Clarita Valley and surrounding Los Angeles area for over 20 years. Our hikes typically explore locations within about 1 to 1.5 hours of our base, and focus on enjoying nature, staying active, and having a great time outdoors.

Meetup will automatically notify you about upcoming events, and you can also view the full schedule anytime on the Events page. The Past Events section and photo albums are a great way to get a feel for the types of hikes and experiences we offer.

In addition to weekly hikes, we occasionally partner with local nature organizations for educational presentations and participate in stewardship activities such as trail cleanups, micro-trash removal to support local wildlife (including condor conservation), river cleanups, and trail maintenance. A few times a year we also organize camping trips, and sometimes backpacking or wilderness-focused outings.

Important: Each hike listing is carefully prepared and includes key details such as difficulty rating, distance, and elevation gain. Please read the description carefully before joining. Our hike leaders are volunteers, and it’s important that each participant selects hikes appropriate for their experience and ability level. If you’re unsure, please message us — we’re happy to help.

If you’re viewing hikes on a mobile device, be sure to expand the listing for full details. On a computer, navigation is easier and all hike information is more visible. If you still have questions, you can message the hike leader directly through Meetup (this goes only to the leader’s email). If you post in the comments section, it will be visible to all participants signed up for that hike.

We’re glad you’re here and look forward to seeing you on the trail.
