Blueberry Knoll | Community Sunset Hike

Blueberry Knoll Sunset Hike 🌄

Join TrailMates for an evening hike up Blueberry Knoll Trail for sunset views, mountain air, and a relaxed evening on the trail with community.

This shorter but steeper hike climbs quickly, rewarding us with beautiful panoramic views overlooking the surrounding valleys and peaks near Government Peak Recreation Area. We’ll time the hike to enjoy the evening light and spend some time at the top relaxing together before heading back down.

Leo will be bringing a beverage and hanging out picnic-style at the tables near the summit for a bit before sunset, so feel free to pack a snack, warm layer, or favorite drink to enjoy while we take in the views.
