Join us for a backpacking trip on one of the most beautiful trails in Northern California, the South Kelsey Trail! This 5-mile out-and-back trail is great for beginners and seasoned backpackers alike: with gorgeous trail views and swimming holes along the way, how can it not be?! With a relatively short distance, frequent breaks and a slow pace, this is a perfect opportunity for beginner backpackers to connect with other nature lovers.
