Dear Volunteers and Friends of Mount Diablo Trails Alliance,
Thank you for being an essential part of our fast-growing community, building a Shared Stewardship model focused on Better Trails & Greater Access for all who visit Mount Diablo State Park.
Together, we’ve accomplished something incredible. Since October 2023, more than 900 volunteers have helped maintain and improve over 10 miles of trails at Mount Diablo. Every foot of trail serviced is a direct result of your passion, teamwork, and commitment to creating better, more sustainable trails while protecting the park’s flora, fauna and watersheds.
“The trails of Mount Diablo are more than just paths. Whether you enjoy hiking, running, biking, or horseback riding, they offer a place to find peace and connect with nature away from the stresses of daily life. Through the dedication of our Dig Day volunteers, we are strengthening these connections one trail at a time. Join us. You will make a difference.”
- Michelle Petersen, Board Chair
