Howl of a Good Hike
Celestial Hikes With TreePeople in Los Angeles
Dedicated to urban forestation and conservation in LA, the nonprofit organization TreePeople brings people and trees together, and that includes occasional moonlight hikes through the ridgetop woodlands in the mountains straddling Beverly Hills and Century City. Hikes go into the night, and nature. As sunlight fades, street lights illuminate the city below, creating a view across the San Fernando Valley that looks like 20th Century Fox’s nightscape logo.
When the sky turns black, double back over a ridge and watch the glowing moon cast faint hues over the dark mountains, shadowy trees rustling as the lights of urban life disappear below. Like barking at the moon? Join in on a celebratory group howl at the top of the ridge. Altogether now: Owooooo... !
BONUS: TreePeople hosts all kinds of excellent events, including outdoor movie nights, so take a look and pick a few to attend!
TREE'S COMPANY: Support a good cause. We need trees, trees need us! Wildfires, drought, intense heat, and massive flooding all mean that our urban centers and surrounding areas need help. Here's how to become a Tree Person.
