We went here for the first time with Robin and Greg and loved it! We are members and if you are looking for a beautiful walk (and salamander watching) then this is your place.
Beautiful spot for short walks or long hikes, just a few miles from downtown Oakland. Nearby Sibley Volcanic and Joaquin Miller Parks are also fantastic.
Another beautiful area for walking and hiking in the Berkeley Hills, with spectacular views of the Bay on the drive up.
