To Non-Members

We do not advertise the exact when and where of our hikes to non-members.  This is to ensure that everyone showing up at the trailhead is aware of the club rules and that their dogs are reasonably well-trained.  In order to get a schedule of our hikes, you must first join the club. So please don't write and ask when the next hike is unless you're a member.

About the Club

California Canine Hikers organizes and leads day and evening hikes mainly in Los Angeles County foothills and mountains. Membership is open to anyone who is interested in participating.

Most of our hikes are relatively easy -- around five miles, round-trip, with no more than about 1,000' of elevation gain. Some, however, are a bit more challenging, and can run to eight or more miles in length and contain more than a thousand feet of gain.

While our activities, and indeed the entire club, are very casual, we insist that the dogs remain leashed at all times, that participants remove their dogs' droppings from the trails, and that they provide adequate water for them. We also expect the dogs to remain under reasonable control during our hikes.

CCH members receive a schedule of upcoming hikes on a quarterly basis. Note that the schedule is also available from the club's password protected Yahoo Groups page.
