Community Hike at Mario DeCampos Trail by Valley Peaks Hiking Club

A joint partnership with Scorpio Gardens x Voces Unidas

Valley Peaks Hiking Club invites you to start the new year in community, movement, and shared access to the outdoors. This hike is a community-centered gathering, not a fitness competition or technical outdoor program. Our intention is to create a supportive space where people can walk together, connect with one another, and experience nature in a way that feels accessible, grounding, and welcoming.

This hike is open to all experience levels, and participants are encouraged to move at their own pace, take breaks as needed, and engage in whatever way feels best for them. Whether you’re looking for gentle movement, fresh air, time in nature, or community connection, you are welcome here.

We will be hiking the Mario DeCampos Trail in Granada Hills. This trail is considered a moderate hike and follows a wide fire road for most of the route.

• Distance: Approximately 4 miles total (out and back)
• Elevation Gain: About 1,230 feet
• Estimated Time: Around 2 hours, depending on group pace and breaks
• Trail Surface: Fire road with packed dirt and gravel
• Terrain: Gradual but steady incline, uneven footing in some areas
• Exposure: Largely exposed with limited shade

Participants should expect a sustained uphill portion and are encouraged to listen to their bodies, turn back if needed, and communicate with facilitators at any time. You do not need to complete the full hike to participate.

• A welcoming, community-focused hike
• Space to walk, talk, reflect, or move quietly
• Shared outdoor experience rooted in care, not performance
• Safety and community intentions shared at the start

• Water (very important)
• Comfortable walking or hiking shoes
• Sun protection (hat, sunscreen)
• Layers appropriate for the weather
• Snacks if needed
