We are now conducting walking tours of Carmel usually on the first Saturday of each month at 9:30AM. Our walks are based on the historical walks designed and led by Kay Prine for many years. The greatest challenge has been getting the word out - so keep our walks in mind when you have visitors (or when you’re just wondering what to do on a lovely Saturday morning). Taking a stroll through Carmel and lingering for lunch may just be the thing! The cost is a $10 donation per person for the 1 1⁄2-hour guided walk.

Carmel Heritage Society will offer everyone who takes the walking tour half off the price of lunch at:

•  Flaherty’s
•  The Grill on Ocean Avenue
•  Merlot Bistro
•  Village Corner

Special walks can be arranged for groups. A group of visitors from the Fullerton Arboretum (pictured above) took a customized, horticulture-oriented walk with Kay Prine and Alice Englander. They continued on to visit the Tor House with Jim Gallagher and Renate Wunsch.

Guided walks are a fun and rewarding activity and we can use more volunteers. Call us if you’re interested in leading walks!

Kay Prine designed the Carmel Heritage Walk . She was raised in Carmel and loves to share tidbits of information about her life in Carmel-by-the-Sea.
