(High Schoolers grades 9–12): Join MYG (MCC Youth Group) for a fun and refreshing Youth Hike at Sunol Regional Wilderness Reserve. This event is designed to give youth an opportunity to connect with nature, build friendships, and enjoy an active day outdoors.
To ensure a comfortable and organized experience, the hike will be staggered with separate times for brothers and sisters. The brothers’ group will begin at 11:00 AM, while the sisters’ group will begin at 11:30 AM. The sisters’ hike will be led by Miss Uroosa, MCC Youth Coordinator, alongside 3–4 adults (21+) per group to provide supervision and support throughout the event. Snacks and water will be provided, but everyone should bring their own lunch for a picnic-style meal on our hike!
Please Note: We will begin our hike promptly at 11 a.m./11:30 a.m., respectively. If there is no group waiting, then the hike has begun. There is no cell reception and we will not be responsible for children who arrive late, so parents will be required to bring their children back home.
Come prepared for a day of hiking, reflection, and community in the outdoors!

About this Trail:
This stunning park of rugged peaks and beautiful vistas has a remote wilderness feel. Its 6,859 acres of wilderness were once home to the area’s first inhabitants and then became vast ranchlands. Today it offers hiking, nature study, backpacking, and picnicking; it draws thousands of visitors annually. The Old Green Barn Visitor Center offers naturalist-led programs that bring to life the history of the park or interpret its natural features. At its higher reaches, the park features large outcroppings of rocks that offer a glimpse into its marine origins.
These lands have been ranch lands since the early 1800s. Today, camping, picnicking, hiking, backpacking, and equestrian trails attract thousands of visitors every year. Little Yosemite is a scenic gorge on the creek. Cave Rocks provides a challenge to rock climbers. There is little water available in the park beyond the Visitor Center; be sure to bring adequate supplies with you on the trail.
