Downtown Hollister is a great town to walk. So many possibilities. Walk up and down the main street, side streets, and alleys. Venture into the residential area beyond South Street or to the west of San Benito Street. Climb up Park Hill and enjoy the view.
If you'd like something a bit more organized, check out these round-trip walks designed by the Downtown Hollister Association. You can download a copy of its brochure describing the walks here. I've summarized the walks below, providing links to past posts on Take 25 to Hollister that give you some background on the subject matter of many of the walks.
- Sacred Heart Walk, a one-mile stroll, begins at Dunne Park where Sacred Heart Church originally was located.
- Downtown Shop Walk, 1.2 miles, allows you to see and visit all the shops and businesses in downtown Hollister.
- Historic District Walk is 1.3 miles long, covering the Downtown Hollister Historic District.
- Fault to Fault Walk is a 1.3 mile walk along the Calaveras Fault.
- Vista Park Hill Walk, 1.5 miles, takes you up to Park Hill, the highest point in Downtown Hollister.
- East of Eden Walk is 2.2 miles of some John Steinbeck history and movie settings for the East of Eden movie.
- Hazel Hawkins Walk, 2.3 miles, starts at the original Hazel Hawkins Hospital and goes to the IOOF Cemetery on Buena Vista Road.
