Oakoasis County Preserve Sunday Hike

We're coming back to do the hike we couldn't do in March due to unforeseen circumstances! 

Join the Hiking Ministry for a 3-mile hike at Oakoasis County Preserve in Lakeside. This is a moderate-level loop trail through a shady oasis of Live Coastal Oak Trees, with a spectacular overlook of the San Vicente Reservoir.

We’ll meet at 3:30 p.m. at the Oakoasis Trailhead. Hike starts promptly at 3:45 p.m. Oakoasis County Preserve is across the street from the El Capitan County Preserve. Parking is plentiful.

Info on the hike can be found here.

Please self-evaluate your fitness level before attempting this walk. You are invited to hike at your own pace, however, if you fall behind the group, it is your responsibility to complete the hike.

Participants must sign the Rock Church waiver in order to hike.
