I wanted to create a place where people in San Jose, Campbell, Morgan Hill, Milpitas and the Bay Area can meet and make new friends. Hiking, walking, biking, camping, dinning. Run into old friend! Everybody has to eat and exercise sometime – might as well do it in good company of others. Meet with people who like adventures - getting thrills through adventurous sports like camping, caving, climbing, hiking, kayaking, skiing, skydiving, whitewater rafting, just to name a few. We plan most of ou …

Most of our hikes are weekday AM in the Livermore and TriValley. Mostly 1 to 2 hours, we occasionally do longer hikes of 3 or 4 hours. Very rarely weekends, so if that is your only availability, we might not be the right group for you. You don't HAVE to work from home, but if you are available during weekdays (retired, flexible schedule etc) and want to get out in the sun (and rain) and get your fitness and nature fix early in the morning, come on out and join us.

This group is for all ages. Hike anywhere around the Bay Area (from San Francisco to Santa Barbara). We offer local hikes that meet on the weekends. These hikes are generally from 6-8 miles and easy to moderate. Some of our hikes will be longer. Members are encouraged to have social events for the group as well. If you have a location or event you would like to suggest for members please contact the organizer or post to the message board. Our organizer team would like to ask our members …

I started this group as a way to keep me accountable to my fitness and weight loss goals. It is so much more fun when you can exercise with other people. So this group is for anyone that wants to join me for walking and/or hiking (and maybe even bike riding, yoga or dance class). I will be doing it regularly so you can join me everyday or just once a week, whatever works for your schedule.   I also invite any member to post an event that they want to host to the site. Everyone has different sche …

PACE yourself encourages patients and supportors of cardiac rhythm devices (i.e. pacemakers, defibrillators, etc) to live an active, healthy, and even competitive lifestyle. The group will try to unite its members by local geographies to meet for walk/runs, cycling rides, hikes, triathalons, or any other activity suggested.

This is a group for casual hikers, dogs and their friends who love to hit the trail for fun and exercise. Based in the East Bay we'll explore dog friendly hikes in the bay area. Dogs of all sizes and breeds that are (mostly) well behaved are welcome. We also encourage non dog owning folks to join us. If you enjoying being with/hiking with dogs, we would love to have you join us on a hike. Please let me know if you'd like to lead a hike : ) we are always happy to have new leaders and learn new …

This is a group for women in their 30s who feel they are going through major transitions in life, i.e., career, family, new home, friendships/relationships, spirituality, etc. As a woman in my 30's, I definitely experienced this transition and I am still going through it now. It seems that the 30's is such an important stage in life when you are redefining yourself, establishing yourself and asserting who you are as an adult in the world. My purpose in creating this group is to create a space fo …

The intention of this group is to bring people together who are into the cleansing/detoxification lifestyle to share tips, recipes, and resources while enjoying mother nature and getting some exercise at the same time. Newbies to the cleansing/detoxification lifestyle as well as seasoned cleansers are welcome.

I love all that the Bay Area has to offer and would love to form a group of peers who enjoy interesting activities like the theater, dining out, trips to the beach and to wine country, to live concerts, to hiking trails, and tennis courts, to gay/lesbian events, and whatever else sounds fun! If you are ready to meet some interesting women for social and professional activities, are ready to have lots of laughter and fun, and are a baby boomer ( most of the members are in their late-40's--early …

Our group has morphed over the several years its been in existence, from walking group to hiking group to all-kinds-of-activities group.  As of July 2011 we're going back to mostly being a hiking group, with an occasional activity of another kind.  Santa Clara Valley used to be called "The Valley of Heart's Delight," and we set out to explore all the places that were still delightful around here.  Now we've done most of that, and expand out to further areas for our hikes, especially in summer wh …
