Claremont Hillsides Wilderness Park Gets New Daily Hours

The Claremont Hillsides Wilderness Park has new daily hours.

The change was made to reflect the dawn to dusk hours that were in effect previously, according to the city's website. The hours were changed following several public hearings and input from the Claremont Hillsides Conservancy.

"Set hours will assit hikers in planning their park visit and allow police to enforce the park opening and closing times," city officials said.

The new hours, which went into effect Friday, are as follows:

January: 6:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
February: 6:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m.
March: 6:30 a.m. - 6:30 p.m.
April:   6:00 a.m. - 7:30 p.m.
May: 5:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.
June: 5:30 a.m. - 8:30 p.m.
