Hike: The Dish - Stanford Foothills
Come join other bay area alumni for an afternoon hike at The Dish @ Stanford Foothills. It is well known for the gigantic radio telescope atop a hill and sampling of wildlife and grassy meadows.
This 3.6 mile paved loop is relatively easy starting with steep hills first, rounding out the hike with a rolling-hill and relatively flat finish.
