Mission: Presidio 2013
Bring your family on a hike and campfire “back in time”!
Let's venture along the Old Mission Road!
Join the Presidio's Park Rangers and Mission Dolores' Ohlone friends on a day of exploring San Francisco's cultural past. So grab your huaraches, canteens, and rebosos--let’s move outdoors!
Beginning in the Mission District, join us for a family hike back in time along the old mission road. We will learn a little history as we follow the path from Mission Dolores to the Spanish Presidio of 1776, with lots of fun along the way.
In the spirit of the ancestors who originally made this trek, we’ll be walking the 4½ mile distance--but don’t fret! There will be a partial shuttle bus option for those whose huaraches can’t make it all the way.
At the end of our journey, we’ll arrive in the Presidio for a sampling of Ohlone, Spanish and modern culture, delicious food and a special campfire at Rob Hill Campground.
- 4 ½ mile hike from Mission Dolores to Rob Hill Campground in the Presidio of San Francisco. Partial shuttle bus option available.
- Hear the Chochenyo language spoken. Listen to native Ohlone and coyote stories.
- Free delicious celebratory dinner after the hike.
- Campfire and S’mores! Dress in layers!
- Shuttle ride back to Mission Dolores after the program. Space limited, registration required.
