Secluded trails through stunning natural beauty are a hallmark of Northern California. This site helps you decide where to go to experience wild nature, and how to get the deepest experience of your time in the wilderness—that relaxed awareness of being truly home. Whether you do day hikes or long backpacking treks, whether you stay close to your own stomping grounds or love to explore the Sierra Nevada, Lassen Volcanic National Park, the Mount Shasta area, the Trinity Alps, the redwoods, the coasts and beaches, the hills of the San Francisco Bay Area, or anywhere else in Northern California, we have you covered.
I’m John Soares, co-author of 100 Classic Hikes in Northern California, third edition and author of 75 Hikes in California’s Mount Shasta and Lassen Volcanic National Park Regions, revised edition. I’ve been a nature bum since at least the age of three, and I’ve traveled all over the northern half of the Golden State. I’ll share what I know and also direct you to other resources. The goal is to get you out of the twenty-first century and back to your native instincts—beyond the confines of technology and societal norms. Read my blog for the latest updates on Northern California hiking and outdoors news, and also to follow my outdoors adventures.
