19 Meetup Groups match “Weekend Hikers” near Sacramento, CA
In December 2011, I was sitting in a three-day, 13-hours-a-day Landmark Education self-improvement seminar in San Francisco, and all I could think about was escaping through one of the hermetically sealed windows and making a dash for Nob Hill, the only thing resembling a steep incline in the area.

Our group meets many times a month for leader-less, (non-guided, can't stress this enough!!!), hikes. We we pick a day, a time, a hike from a map, and we hike! Many times it's our first time on the trail too. Occasionally we will join a guided hikes through other organizations but the description will indicate that it is led by that particular group. Most of our hikes will be non-guided day hikes in nearby Regional, State and National Parks, and mapped trails in Wilderness. We will also have …
(Fremont / Union City / Newark) A fun local way to stay in shape for those longer weekend hikes with other groups or just to stay healthy and meet new people. Beautiful panoramic views of the bay area all the way from San Jose to San Francisco. Let fun social activity pull you outdoors after work rather than having to push yourself to exercise by yourself.
