Join us for a 4.5 mile loop hike into the Liberty Canyon Preserve by way of Heartbreak Hill.
The first half mile contains a 500 ft elevation gain (Its not called "Heartbreak Hill" for nothing). The next mile has a couple of rolling hills giving us another 150 ft and 100 ft respectively. After that its all downhill on the Phantom Trail into Liberty Canyon. We will exit the Preserve on Liberty Canyon Trail and return to Agoura Rd along residential Liberty Canyon Rd.
We'll climb the hill as fast as we can, each at his/her own pace, and regroup at the top.
Its not as bad as it sounds since the strenuous section is short. This is a good one for moderate hikers to test and extend themselves.
