New Year’s sunrise hike: say hello to 2026

  • China Camp Point 1898 North San Pedro Road San Rafael, CA, 94901 United States (map)

Ring in the new year in a spectacular way. Join naturalist Harold Hirsch as he leads our annual New Year’s Day sunrise hike—a heart-pumping and fun way to welcome 2026.

Start with an invigorating ascent to one of China Camp’s premier vista points, then, at 7:26 a.m., watch the sun as it peeks over the horizon on the first day of the year. If you wish, bring a short message or poem to share at the vistapoint. Hot chocolate will be served after the hike, and you can roast marshmallows.

Space is limited; registration required. Cancellation notified via email.
