52 Hike Challenge #OptOutside Hike Claremont Hills Loop

This is a fun moderate hike on the Claremont Hills Loop to celebrate REI's Opt-Out Event with the 52 Hike Challenge. Bring a Mantra!

Join us on Sunday, December 4th for #OptOutside. We are encouraging our community, friends, dogs and kids to join us outdoors for gratitude, community and inclusivity thanks to our partner REI. We will have giveaways, snacks and start with a meditation.

ABOUT THE TRAIL

Discover this 5.0-mile loop trail near Claremont, California. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 2 h 19 min to complete. This is a very popular area for birding, hiking, and horseback riding, so you'll likely encounter other people while exploring. The best times to visit this trail are March through October. Dogs are welcome and may be off-leash in some areas.

This is a kid-friendly hike as well.

To hike Claremont Hills Wilderness Park, you’ll head to 4031 N Mills Ave, Claremont, CA 91711.

There are two available parking lots for this hike. While driving north on Mills, you’ll see the first lot at the intersection of Mills and Mt. Baldy Rd. This lot is for Thompson Creek Trail and Claremont residents with a park pass.

You can also pay for a day use pass here if the north lot is full. Continuing north on Mills past the south parking lot, the road will dead end into the north lot. Park here and pay a ticket station for your parking pass.

We will meet near the gate. To begin hiking the Claremont Hills Wildness Park 5 mile loop, head north from the parking lot towards the park entrance gates. The trail will head over a seasonal creek and continue on for a quarter of a mile before reaching the loop trail.

This is a dog friendly and kid friendly trail.

DRIVING DETAILS & PARKING: Claremont Hills Wilderness Park charges a fee to enter. For more information, please visit: https://www.ci.claremont.ca.us... is $7 for 4 hours, and $8 for 6 hours.

Park hours may vary, and there is a parking fee, so it is a good idea to check the park website ahead of time. Plenty of benches and restroom facilities are available on this trail.
