These trips provide a unique opportunity for our children to learn about conservation, and to explore, enjoy, and protect the wilderness. All outings are family outings, meaning that each child must be accompanied by a parent, grandparent or other responsible adult. The Committee formed in 1987 and leads hikes throughout LA and Orange County and camping trips throughout California, You do not have to be a member of the Sierra Club to go on any of our trips. Out trips are listed on the Sierra Club Angeles Chapter Schedule of activities, our newsletter and on this web site. Only our newsletter has all the trips and leader information.
All hikes are FREE and open to the general public.
They are lead by certified leaders of the Sierra Club. Day hikes usually start at 10 am and last 2 to 3 hours, with lots of breaks and time for lunch. Each hike lists its mileage, but we usually only go a couple of miles. The pace is nice and slow so the kids have time to examine every bug, plant, rock, and puddle. Camping is with tents for 1 or 2 nights on weekends throughout Southern California.
