This is an Intermediate/advanced hike for physical conditioning to prep for harder mountain hikes. There is some steep downhill requiring hiking shoe tread. The uphill is gradual but constant. Pace is Intermediate/advanced. You can do one loop and exit or multiple. I usually do 3. Each takes about 50 minutes. I normally arrive at 8:55am. We will leave at 9 am sharp. MEETING PLACE : I will be right inside the green iron gate near the water fountain just off Mulholland Parking : parking lot near entrance gate. More parking on Mulholland but pay attention to signs. RAIN CANCELS This is a loop I do weekly. Each loop is approximately 2 miles/50 minutes. You can do as few or as many as you want. We'll go down the fire road to East ridge then come up West ridge fire road. I usually do 3 laps. You can exit at the Mulholland gate after any lap.

THANKSGIVING IN MAURITIUS & SEYCHELLES

[CLICK HERE FOR ALL THE DETAILS AND TO RSVP](https://1000treks.com/trip/thanksgiving-in-mauritius-and-seychelles/) All right, I decided to go all out and go crazy on this one (as I often do!) and make this another insanely amazing trip. Initially, we were going to Seychelles only, and that alone would have been phenomenal, but since it’s a long flight and we will be in the Western Indian Ocean, I decided to make this a legendary trip: we are going to start with Mauritius, which is easier to get to, and then go to Seychelles afterward. It will be a little longer than our usual one-week Thanksgiving trips (and you can keep it to one week if you need to), but it will be 1000% worth it! As always for our Thanksgiving trips, we will have a scuba group that will scuba dive every day, and a non-scuba group that will have activities every day. **HIGHLIGHTS** * See the [Underwater Waterfall](https://tinyurl.com/45jpdddv), the newest natural wonder that is blowing people’s minds. A jaw-dropping sight that apparently can’t be seen anywhere else in the world. * [Swim with dolphins in the wild](https://youtu.be/LXDgjZbNjvk?si=Ur72G-Gxht7mK5Xa&t=10). Yup, you read this correctly! We are not going to just see them, but jump in the water and swim with free dolphins in their natural habitat! * [Snorkel and scuba dive](https://www.instagram.com/p/DKr7eFKsUQD/) in some of the most beautiful locations in the world. * Go on an [ATV safari](https://youtu.be/W2_dh0qS5sQ?si=IagY5N4GEIqotnga&t=33)!
