This former railroad track is now a "people-friendly" 23-mile long trail for bikers, hikers, in-line skaters, and horseback riders.

The path was paved and was a few steps from the hotel. The area was clean and safe. Lots of locals using the path as well.

During late fall, my daughter, her two sons of 5 and 3 (very active grandsons!), and I went to Sycamore Grove. It was a gorgeous day, and the park was beautiful with the changing colors of the big leaves of the sycamore trees. It was good to follow the paved pathway and go over the nice wooden bridge. Off the bridge, we went down below and the two young ones had so much fun throwing rocks onto the stream to make the biggest splash and ripples. Moving on we found this great sycamore tree. One of its very large branch drooped down to the ground. It was perfect for the boys as they clambered up and down having much fun. This park is perfect for family outings, for taking walks,including your dog, for picniking, and for meditating. It is lovely in any season!! Note: There is a small fee using your cedit card to enter.
4. Castle Ridge Trail

Castleridge trail recently opened and it gives the hikers that don't have hours to hike long distance access to the entire North end of the Pleasanton Ridge. This area was most easily accessed by cyclers and has been a little secret of theirs. The trail itself start at the trail head located behind the Alviso Adobe complex. There is a bathroom and water fauntain. at the trail head. This trail is not suggested for someone looking to have a easy level hike. For the most part it goes right up the hill. It does have level spots to catch your breath, but it can give you all the workout you might wish for depending on how you like to walk. The trail is 1.9 miles long, single track, and it is a beautiful walk mostly through trees. As a former mountain biker this trail will be difficult for many to climb since it is narrow and steep in many places. I have already seen many pushing their bikes up the trail. As for going down, please be careful for the same reason. It would be tempting to go fast but there is no room for error on this trail. Once your at the top you can turn left and head over to the Augustin Bernal section of the ridge or go right and explore several more miles of trails that most ridge hikers have never seen.
5. Los Vaqueros Reservoir
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 14 reviews
The watershed consists of 19,300 acres of protected lands surrounding the Los Vaqueros Reservoir, which holds 160,000 acre-feet of stored drinking water. An expansion of the reservoir took place in 2011 & 2012. The reservoir expended from a maximum capacity of 100,000 acre-feet to 160,000 acre-feet. Recreational facilities at the South Entrance were relocated to higher ground. The project enables the Water District to pump high quality water from Old River in the Delta during wet months when salinity is low, then store it for use in the fall, when the Delta water quality is poor. The water is pumped from the Old River intake, then transported through several miles of pipeline to the reservoir, where it is stored. The project's primary purpose is to improve drinking water quality for 450,000 customers and the watershed is open to the public for recreation year round. The watershed offers fishing, a boat rental marina, courtesy fishing docks, hiking and multi-use trails, picnic facilities, restrooms and three staging areas. Los Vaqueros is a protected watershed environment that provides people with drinking water and numerous protected animal and plant species with a place to live. Because the reservoir stores drinking water, body contact sports (such as swimming) and personal watercraft are not allowed. Dogs are not allowed at Los Vaqueros Reservoir. Smoking is allowed only in designated smoking areas. Possession and/or consumption of alcoholic beverages is not allowed at Los Vaqueros Reservoir.

We have been fishing at Los Vaqueros for almost ten years and we love this reservoir hardly ever leave empty handed. Living in Clayton we usually access the Brentwood entrance and being added hikers we don’t mind the hike that it takes from that side do you get to the reservoir. But that entrance is no longer available at this time. The few times that we haven’t caught anything it’s been well worth the trip just to watch the wildlife that is abundant everywhere. Here’s a picture of our fishing buddy the on our last trip.
