Advanced Cardio Hike Weir/ Rifle Range

Join us for strenuous and brisk early morning hike to start the New Year in the Weir Canyon Nature Preserve This 6-mile cardio hike includes a 1100-foot elevation change, and is for experienced, physically fit hikers who enjoy the challenge of multiple steep climbs and descents. Along the way we’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of Orange County, possible wildlife sightings, and the beautiful oak woodlands of lower Weir Canyon.

You must be an experienced cardio hiker in excellent physical condition to participate in this program. There are no scheduled rest stops on this six (6) mile cardio hike, and the average four (4) mile per hour pace is extremely difficult over steep terrain in the wilderness setting.

Reviewing the 1-through-5 Difficulty Ratings will help you evaluate your readiness to participate in this level-4 activity on the land.
