Calero County Park - Peña and Figueroa Trail Hike (San Jose) 
Saturday, May 30, 2026 10:00am - 03:00pm
 

Enjoy the trails and the spectacular views of Calero County Park on May 3rd with Tom Lee. We will hike through mixed serpentine terrain and enjoy different plant communities. The trail starts with some climbing in grasslands and loops around chaparral before returning along a creek. This hike will be about 3.6 miles long with an elevation gain of 580 feet.

Some flowers seen in past pears during this season include buttercups, lupines, fiddlenecks and iris, along with red-winged blackbirds. Please bring sturdy shoes, appropriate layering, hat and lunch. Heavy rain cancels.

RSVP is required to join the hike. No drop-ins please and space is limited due to narrow trails. Please visit our Chapter’s Meetup group, here: www.meetup.com/California-Native-Plant-Society-Santa-Clara-Valley-Chapter/. We open the RSVPs one week before the event. Find your event within the group and tap/click the “Attend” button to reserve your spot.

Location Calero County Park at 3205 McKean Road
