It's a solid little climb, so don't underestimate it just because the mileage looks short. But the payoff at the top is so worth it. You get views on both sides -- Wente golf course rolling out on one side, and Lake Del Valle stretching out on the other. Such a peaceful, pretty spot to catch your breath. Everything was gold/dry when I went, but I can already tell this place is going to be stunning once fall/winter rains turn the hills green again. Great short hike if you want a quick workout with a big view payoff. Just bring sun protection and water for that first mile!

And it was beautiful so who really won? I don't recall which trail we did, but the views were nice. There's not much shade along the trail we took so I'd say wear a hat if you can and stay hydrated. Once in a while, we saw a random cow walking along which was cool. This place is popular - we saw a lot of families and bicyclists when we were here.

Many hiking trails, rental boats and calm clean water with many birds all over the place. You pay to park and for fishing but that helps for maintenance and for the planting of fish which they do a few times a year. They have a small store which sell bait and the day i came to check it out they had a picture of a 6 year old girl that had caught a 5 pound trout. I had no luck but still nice way to relax after work.
