- **Event Name**: Soft Trail Stroll: J-11 Out-and-Back
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 15 Aug, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sat, 15 Aug, 2026 at 11:00 am
- **Event Description**: Join us for some new (to this series) dirt trail and perhaps some surprises. To access the J-11 Trail we will use the same meeting spot as when we visit Denman Woods. Park along the south side of North Valley Drive west of the bridge over Walnut Creek. Meet by 10:00 at the west end of the bridge.

This walk uses the paved Walnut Creek Trail and will enter and exit J-11 a few times as we walk out and back for a total of 1.8 miles.

If J-11 is muddy, we will walk only on paved trail. Either way, we will walk slowly, think “stroll,” and no one will be left behind. And either way, we will reach the goal and perhaps get a surprise.

J-11 is relatively flat. Although a good portion of this route is paved, over half  is dirt singletrack, punctuated with occasional roots and rocks. Hiking poles are useful, but not a necessity.

This free Soft Trail Stroll series is designed to help people looking for a simple way to become more active. The events are for people of all ages (and dogs on leashes)—anyone who fancies a stroll!

The second purpose is to increase appreciation of our local soft trails. What is a soft trail? Simply, it is an unpaved trail. Its surface may be dirt, grass, or crushed rock/gravel. I am an avid mountain biker and know all these trails very well. I can guarantee that no one will get lost!
