Armchair Travelers on Thursday, August 11, 2022, at 1:30 p.m., in the Livermore Public Library Storytime Room. Tom Courtney will share photographs and discuss some of the remarkable multiday hiking adventures he features in his guidebook, the second edition of Walkabout Northern California: Hiking Inn to Inn. Registration is not required for this free event.

Inn-to-inn hiking enables hikers to leave their cars behind, explore California wilderness, and end each day with a great meal, a hot shower, and a comfortable bed. Tom will discuss a hike along the spectacular Northern California coast from the Marin Headlands to Point Reyes, with stops in charming towns along the way. Another featured hike winds through the rugged mountains and hydrothermal landscapes of Lassen Volcanic National Park, with a stay at an historic guest ranch. His presentation will also showcase a stroll on the rugged Mendocino Coast and a hike along the American River through the Sierra Foothills. Tom will share advice for planning an inn-to-inn adventure, including tips on gear and lodging.
