Looking for an all season relaxing trail in the Bay Area? Start no further than at the foothills of the Los Gatos. There are various loops and one can hike as short as 2 miles or make it nice 4-5 mile hike as well. We did the longer route and walked around 4 miles.
Location: Link
Parking: There is no dedicated parking area but ample spots at the beginning of the hike (street parking)
Generally, an easy hike with an uphill in the initial portion of the trail and relatively flat there after. It is very popular for mountain biking. Given it is a dog friendly (on 6-ft leash), be ready to spot a lot of furry friends on the hike. There are ample viewpoints to spot the San Jose Downtown view.
