KARUNA YOGA GROUP HIKE

_____________________________

Our August hike takes us on a path to meet some prominent Berkeley rock stars and the lovely parks where these remnants of the distant geologic past can be seen. We will wind our way up and down along gorgeously landscaped paths and stairways, between houses, exploring these fascinating ancient rock formations, the grinding holes used by Native Americans for thousands of years and beautiful views of Berkeley and the Bay.
