Hit the Trails – Mountain Biking

May 22, 2021 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Because of the very serious environmental issues like the climate crisis and mass species extinction event underway, we at Save Mount Diablo have been trying to respectfully reach more groups of people and invite them into our conservation tent so that we can build more momentum, and appreciation, for conservation.  We desperately need more types of people on the side of conservation, not less.  For example, with our free Discover Diablo educational outings program, we have added rock climbing, mountain biking, and bilingual hikes this year so as to invite more outdoor user groups, different peoples and ethnic groups in to be educated about conservation and join our conservation team.  Nature needs us all now!
All Discover Diablo hikes are subject to, and will honor, all applicable COVID-19–related restrictions in place for our area.
