Meet-up at Illumigarden, in Mill Valley. From the West Blithedale Gate in Mill Valley, we meander along picturesque Old Railroad Grade Fire Road to Corte Madera Creek Trail - a singletrack trail resplendent with canopies of tall Redwoods, Oak and Bay trees, and elegant ferns settled near the creek’s edge. We continue eastward to enjoy spectacular panoramas in all directions.
Blithedale Ridge offers what many consider to be the most spectacular views of Mount Tamalpais, as well as fabulous vistas of Mill Valley and Richardson Bay, Corte Madera, Larkspur, Ross, San Anselmo and Bald Hill, Mount Diablo and the East Bay, and San Francisco, which when viewed from this perspective brings to mind the Emerald City in the movie classic, The Wizard of Oz.
