One of the best off leash dog park in the Bay Area. Not a big parking lot but not hard to find a spot.
Nice off leash area for dogs, much less unpicked dog waste compared to other trails and parks in the Bay Area.
Great fenced-in area that well behaved dogs can run off leash. The views are pretty too but not much shades. It’s perfect for an easy walk on a spring or fall day.
There was fresh water for the dogs to drink, plus little wading pools for the dogs to play in. Several benches with shade trees above them. Friendly people. A wonderful path, that I only heard about. I didn’t take the walk. I was very impressed.
Amazing location. The views- the work out- the other dogs. Was a great experience for my dog and we spent a good 3h there today.
There’s clearly marked on leash and off leash areas- i didn’t want to press my luck so waited until i crossed that line- good thing i did, there ARE park rangers.
Parking was easy- owners were respectful and cleaning up After their dogs etc. highly recommend!
