Mother's Day Hike With Dogs
Details
Join me for a bonus hike at Sonoma Valley Regional Park/Sonoma Developmental Center. The trails we'll hike will pass through the park's northern boundary and offers views of Sonoma Valley and the Mayacamas Range. The property is an important piece of the Sonoma Valley Wildlife Corridor, a collection of protected lands allowing animals safe crossing on the valley floor.
