DESCRIPTION:Join Hikers for Palestine on Thursday, January 1, 2026, at 11 am for a 
 scenic and restorative walk along the Nimitz Way, starting from Inspiration 
 Point in Tilden Regional Park. We’ll meet in the Inspiration Point 
 parking area at Wildcat Canyon Road, Orinda, CA 94563 and hike an 
 approximately 4.5‑mile out‑and‑back route along the ridge.   The hike 
 will take about 2 to 2.5 hours. \n\nThe paved trail is moderately easy, 
 largely exposed with very little shade, and passes through open grasslands 
 with occasional groves of trees. Dogs are welcome but must remain on a 
 leash at all times. Along the way, you’ll enjoy spectacular views of the 
 San Francisco Bay, San Pablo Reservoir, and the East Bay hills, along with 
 fresh air and good company.  \n\nOur purpose is to bring visibility to the 
 Palestinian cause in public spaces while nourishing our spirits through 
 community and nature. Bring your keffiyehs, flags, and other symbols of 
 Palestinian solidarity, as well as water, snacks, sunblock, layers, and 
 comfortable walking shoes.\n\nWe are suggesting a $5–$20 donation to 
 support the HEAL Palestine Orphan Program, though no one will be turned 
 away for lack of funds. In Gaza, thousands of children have lost parents, 
 homes, and their sense of safety. HEAL Palestine has identified 70 orphaned 
 and sole-survivor children in urgent need of long-term, comprehensive 
 support. Their Orphan Program provides these children with stability, 
 education, emotional care, and essential resources to help rebuild their 
 lives. We will be collecting donations via Venmo or cash to contribute a 
 collective lump-sum donation.\n\nLearn more at:

 forward to walking together in solidarity and community.\n
