Description

San Diego Bird Alliance proudly presents... another Queer Hike!

This month: Oak Oasis County Preserve

These hikes are a safe space for all LGBTQ+IA and allies. In this space, we expect everyone to be respectful of identity and chosen pronouns. Pronouns: What and Why

Join us for a nature walk that is for all people who seek a non-judgemental community, where we celebrate diversity among birds and birders. 

Oak Oasis County Preserve "boasts nearly 400 acres of chaparral, manzanita, and woodlands." The 2.5-mile loop is a moderately challenging trail on packed dirt. Sinking into the oak woodland, this place feels like a fairytale hidden in the hills of Lakeside. A climb up into chapparal scrub leads to amazing views of San Vicente Reservoir.
