A guide to hiking Mission Peak - Fremont, CA
Vložit
- čas přidán 23. 12. 2021
- Mission Peak is a hard 6 mile loop trail in Fremont, CA. There's diffrent spots to start; I started at the Stanford Avenue staging area. Most people went to the left and did not complete the loop. the loop going right is the hardest of the loop section. Going left you avoid some extremely steep sections and still get to Mission Peak. There is very little shade. Mixed with strenuous hills and no shade; BRING LOTS OF WATER. Drones are not allowed in this area. I loved this trail. The views are amazing almost right away and only get better the higher you go. This trail is really popular. There's more information in the video. Feel free to leave a comment if you have any questions.

I’ve lived in Fremont for 59 yrs and have never tried to climb Mission Peak. Thanks very much for showing me what it would be like. Great job. Peggy M
Thanks for watching and Thank you very much 😊. It really is a beautiful trail! I loved that there's a view the whole time. Thanks Peggy 😊
Awesome! Big Foot is Santa Claus!!!
Merry Christmas, Paul!
Merry Christmas! I love that shirt 🤣
I was there that day and even have a photo of you in the background!
That's awesome! Feel free to share the pic on my Instagram. We lucked out that day with great weather! I really feel in love with this trail 😊
I grew up in Newark in the shadow of mission peak. Never took that climb and now I'm too old lol. Thanks for doing this! Fantastic views
Thank you! Beautiful out there. More adventures to come. Thanks again 😊
that is certainly interesting to go up to find the famous Christmas tree, wow I love the views
Thanks. It's an awesome hike!
Love the look of this one. I'm gonna have to get brave and try this...
Thanks! That means a lot coming from you. Just one step at a time 😉. Steep! 🤣
Great stuff, Paul. What outstanding views. Great setup in, "There is supposed to be a Christmas Tree at the top of this hill....." Merry Christmas! 🎅🏻🥤
Thank you. I actually didn't want the thumbnail to be the tree; to leave more mystery. BUT it was the best thumbnail I had, so 🤣. Hope you guys had a great Christmas! I still gotta figure out how to post on your fb community page 🤣. I've just been SO busy
Awesome views! Great video, Ill have to try that some day!
Thank you! I loved it out there, what a place. 🙂
Another great adventure !
Thanks ❤
Just a little "steep"! Next time, here are some synonyms for ya: precipitous, sheer, abrupt, sharp, perpendicular, vertical, vertiginous. lol I too, am one of those who end up going the opposite direction to the regular crowd. The tree has been found and fantastic views enjoyed! Take great care now and hope you have yourself a very Merry Christmas from Bruce and Otis!
Lol...great vocabulary 😁. Some sections were tippy toe steep! I'm so happy the tree was there! Merry Christmas Bruce and Otis. To many more adventures 🍻
I did this hike yesterday from Ohlone College trail, we started 7am, reach the top around 9ish. It was my 2nd time reach the top out of 3 times lol (yes I gave up my 1st time). Its no joke but worth the view! Sadly the iconic post has been cut off.
That's awesome, I'm glad you made it! It is such a beautiful mountain. I saw on the news that someone vandalized the pole, really sad. Hopefully, it gets restored soon.
So glad the zve10 looks to be working great for ya. I got the sigma too and have been really liking it so far! Great vlog and hike! What a view Merry Christmas Paul!
Thats awesome you got the Sigma, such a great lens for that camera. I now use an nd filter for filming outside; I used it in this video. We also now know the camera and lens can take a hard fall and survive 🤣
@@ChooseAdventureCaliforniaStyle I saw that! Good to hear!
@@AdventuresinMillerland oh and the other advantage to using the nd filter is it adds even more background blur. Pretty cool 😎
I'm a hike-aholic living in the Dublin/Pleasanton/San Ramon area. I hiked Mission Peak for the first time on Monday, 9-18-2023 (I'm posting this on 9-21-2023). You weren't kidding about the parking situation. The parking lot opens at 6:30 am (as you said, there's no parking fee). I got there at 8:15 am, and it was already completely full. I found street parking a block away, and when I started the hike up, I could already see several people coming down, so I guess the lot starts filling up immediately upon opening. No complaints, though. Its easy to see why its so popular. Its reasonably challenging, and non-stop beautiful!
I'm glad you got to hike Mission Peak. I agree, it's non-stop beautiful views. I was lucky the day I hiked it, not to bad crowd wise. Definitely the earlier the better. I've heard the most epic hike is starting out in the dark with a headlamp. Then watching the sunrise from the peak. Was the Mission Peak pole fixed? I heard it got vandalized, and someone took the pole.
The pole at the summit is a plain unmarked waist-high mildly rusty pole atop a 5-foot-high mini-hill of rocks. It is handy, cuz it provides something to hold onto atop that hill of rocks, so one can safely snap selfies. I'm unfamiliar with the pole's history, so I thought nothing of its plainness.
[Editted for typos].
@FoodinSR I saw on the news someone sawed it off and it's gone...🤔. This happened recently
The top half of the pole is gone, yes. There's just the lower half still standing.
UPDATE: According to a KRON4 news story on Sept. 4th by Sophia Villalba and Amanda Hari, the sawed-off top half of the pole has been recovered, per the East Bay Regional Park District. But it hasn't yet been re-attached at the summit.
Awesome..well covered trail..Is there any forest in the trail? You mentioned you lost the signals for a short time when you faced some forest area.
Hey! Thanks. If you do the loop like I did, there is a small section of "forest." It's not a big section at all. Other than that, it's all in the open. It's an awesome hike.
Thanks for the quick reply and info! Got it...
In India I have completed n no of hikes In different regions. From tropical Sahyandri mountain ranges with full of tropical dense forest, waterfalls to himalyan mountain ranges of snow capped mountains. Got fascinated with your blogs and thinking of covering few during my planned US trip starting from April.
would love to go through more of your blogs with new destinations..
Best wishes! keep bloggjng...👍🏻
3 miles up…. Yeah I’ll be having to work up to this lol
It's legit hard. Amazing views!! Definitely bring more water than you think you need. I think I just read someone vandalized the pole at the top; they cut it off. Sad 😔
One like from me. 👍
Awesome, Thank you 😁
Just a walk in the park
🤣
What camera were you using? Looks good
Thanks. It's the Sony zv e10 with sigma 16mm f1.4 with nd filter. It's my newish set up and I'm really happy. Thank you for the comment. Glad it's looking good 😊
When did you go? Im debating about going this Friday but dont want it to be super muddy
I think I went about 6 days ago. I saw on fb it was snowing up there. I'd imagine it would be muddy. Keep an eye on the weather though... but ya, probably safe to say muddy. The way I went for sure would be rough, the other way(left) might be ok. There is 1 steep climb before the summit that could be muddy. Good luck!
@@ChooseAdventureCaliforniaStyle Thank you
