Fourth of July Night Hike at Sugarloaf

Join Team Sugarloaf and Sonoma Ecology Center and climb one of the tallest mountains in Sonoma Valley—Bald Mountain—and enjoy a spectacular vantage point to view as many as 16 different fireworks displays! This strenuous hike covers approximately 6.5 miles roundtrip with over 1500 ft. elevation gain, including steep sections. Expect approximately 1.5 hours hiking time each way.

Upon arrival at the top of Bald Mountain, you’ll enjoy a mountaintop reception: hearty snacks and sweets, refreshing lemonade, and water. Kick back, relax, and enjoy the beautiful sights of fireworks displays that span the Bay Area—from Windsor in the north, Berkeley and Oakland in the east, and San Francisco to the south, with possible views into the South Bay.

This year, our friends at Robert Ferguson Observatory are joining us at the summit with a telescope, so you can fit in some stargazing—and an astronomy lesson—while we wait for the fireworks to begin!
