Novato Village Walkers—McInnis Park Walking Trail 

Thursday, September 3, 10:30 – 11:30am

370 Main Dr. (just off of Smith Ranch Road, across from the parking lot for McInnis Restaurant), San Rafael

Walk the trail overlooking McInnis Marsh and along the Gallinas Creek. Bring binoculars to spot the birds that flock to tidal flats. We will meet at 10:30am in the parking lot area on the right. The walk is approximately one hour out to the levee and back. The trail is wide, flat, and easy, with packed soil, but little or no shade. Bring a hat and water. Please RSVP so we know how many walkers to expect. Call Pat Bailey’s mobile phone (415) 652-9073 or email [email protected] to RSVP or ask any questions about the location and parking.

From Novato: Highway 101 S. Take exit 456 Lucas Valley/Smith Ranch Road. Stay on Smith Ranch Road. Drive to the end of Smith Ranch Rd., over the railroad tracks and under the flower trellis, and park in the lot on the right side. This is just before the small “McInnis Golf Club” sign on the right. Stay on the right side of the road, which changes name to Main Dr. The McInnis Park Trail entrance is on the right side. There are several parking areas with a view of the Gallinas Creek.
