This is a hiking group, plus other misc. events (Wine Tasting, Museums, etc) for people in their 20s and 30s. It's a good way to stay in shape and make some new friends. (Optional) After the hike some of us will meet at a brunch place. This is for positive, fun people who live in Los Angeles, Hollywood, West LA, etc. You can be from elsewhere if you don't mind the drive. This is for people that like a good cardio workout, but like stopping along the way to take photos, and stop to smell the rose …

Meet other local fans of Disc Golf, a combination of Frisbee and golf. Make new friends while learning to play this game. Disc Golf is an exceptionally mellow game, as you walk the parks and serene outdoor areas where the courses are located. It is also a way to help keep green & open spaces in our neighborhoods. We recently started an optional $2 buy in for an opportunity to win a used disc golf disc, with all proceeds going toward a Progressive charity or non-profit selected each month. To fin …

Hi Everyone, I've met a lot of great people, but I think that this group's focus was a little "off" when I created it. I've heard a lot from people who wish is was "more vegan-friendly" as well as people from the other side of the fence who left because the group was too vegan-centric, and they weren't really interested. I briefly thought about shutting us down and creating a new group, but 117 members is nothing to laugh at. I've thought about it a lot, and I'm going to put together some events …

This meet up is all about exploring Los Angeles on foot.  There are so many interesting parts of Los Angeles that you never notice as you drive by it in your car.  By getting out and exploring the city, we'll discover new things we didn't know existed.  We'll try to keep most hikes between 4-7 miles to make sure we have time to complete the hike and have time to explore during the hike. What is Urban Hiking? An urban hike gives us the chance to explore the terrain we live in, to contemplate how …

I enjoy easy paced hikes and strools every weekend and would enjoy the company of others to chat along the way. We will enjoy beautiful scenery and  the wild things of the Santa Monica Mountains, as well as an occational strool on the beach for a sunset. We will have picnics or go out for a bite to eat after words for a socialize. Kind Reagards: Chris

United Steps is a privately funded non-profit organization based in Los Angeles, California. Our primary mission is to reverse the cycle of homelessness with practical methods. In Southern California, we’ve developed a dangerous tolerance for assuming that having thousands of people living on the streets is acceptable. This is an embarrassing and shameful environment which has caused Los Angeles to become the capitol of homelessness in America. The reality is that more than enough food, housing, …

This is a group that will walk at a slow pace, about 20-minute miles. It's meant to be social, so we'll hopefully talk while we're walking. We'll mostly walk around the Brentwood Country Club, although eventually we may branch out to other routes. The walks will be during the day, not the evening. I would love for you to join us!

Good Yogis meditate, practice asanas, go on retreats, and study the Dharma. Bad Yogis do all those things but then wander off to hike, backpack, rock climb, mountaineer, showshoe, kayak, ... you get the idea. I love the feeling of becoming more present through meditation and yoga, and then go out in nature to do physical activities for the sensory experience while being mindful. I'm doing all this anyway, but my outdoorsy friends aren't very spiritual and my spiritual friends aren't very outdoor …

Hi Hi. Thanks for checking us out - hope you join. So I know there are quite a few of these out there all ready, but I'm trying to bring people together for natural and urban hikes.

I'm open to any ideas or suggestions you have so let me know. Some ideas of what I'm thinking: Checking out the ruins of t …
