October Conscious Women's Hike: Batteries to Bluffs SF Trail

Merchant Rd Parking Lot, Merchant Rd, San Francisco, CA, US

Join us for a soul-nourishing morning/afternoon of movement, mindfulness, and meaningful connection as we gather for a Conscious Women’s Hike along the Batteries to Bluffs Trail near the Presidio. This unique experience is designed for women walking the path of self-awareness who are seeking deeper connection with others and nature.

Led by Keegan Mills, Yoga & Meditation Teacher, Empowerment Coach, and experienced group facilitator— this guided journey offers a sacred space to connect deeply with yourself, nature, and other like-hearted women.

What to Expect:
🌿 Intention-Setting Practice to open the space and anchor your experience
🧘 Guided Meditation to ground your energy and open your heart
🥾 Silent Walk halfway through to tune in and reflect inward
🤝 Connection Exercise to mindfully engage with fellow participants

Trail Description (from All Trails): https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/california/batteries-to-bluffs-trail
This short 2 mile trail takes you along the cliffs bordering the Pacific Ocean where we can explore the coastal plants and wildlife as well as stunning views. This is one of my favorite trails and that offers views of the Golden Gate. There are stairs and a bit of rugged terrain. Definitely okay for beginner to intermediate hikers, it's labeled as an easy hike. We will stop at Marshall beach for a light afternoon picnic, soulful connection, and a mindful moment.

Meeting point: We'll meet in the parking lot near the trail starting point at:
6302 Merchant Rd, San Francisco, CA 94129

Parking Information: There is a parking lot with free parking. It does get full so I suggest carpooling or take a rideshare like Uber/Lyft, or public transportation.

Hiking Level: Easy-Intermediate, great for beginners or taking a moderately easy hike day. There are some stairs we'll take down to the beach for our halfway point and picnic.

Hiking Time: About 2.5 hours

What to Bring: Water, comfortable sturdy walking/hiking shoes, layers to prepare for Bay Area weather, journal, and an open heart. Bring snacks to share for a light mid-afternoon picnic. I will bring a few snacks to share for our halfway point stop. We'll stop at the halfway point for a brief guided meditation and a group connection experience.

While the organizer, Keegan is guiding this experience, she is not the expert in hiking or this trail, this hike is collaborative and is more about connection with nature and each other. This is a hike at your own risk event and take care of each other. We look out for each other and take care of each other along the way, but most importantly, take good care of yourself first. That means knowing your own limits, taking breaks, bringing water to stay hydrated.

If you'd like to contribute for the organizing costs this event and to support this group, as well as supplies and facilitation of this event, you can Venmo me (@KeeganMills) or PayPal. Suggestion contribution ($5-10). There is a fee to host a meetup group on this platform, so your contribution helps support the ongoing efforts of keeping this group going. Any amount is appreciated!

I look forward to seeing you all there!
