A magnificent natural park with rolling hills, scenic hiking trails, native wildflowers, and breathtaking views across San Francisco Bay. The diverse landscape and peaceful surroundings make it an excellent destination for hiking, wildlife watching, outdoor photography, and exploring nature.

We are visiting the area from out of state and we wanted to drive up radio road, when we bought the $6 ticket at the gatehouse there was nothing there saying on the gatehouse that radio Road is only open on weekends. Then we got up to the closed gate and we basically felt like we wasted our money. That's not fair to tourists and visitors. We gave our pass to another person in line at the gatehouse to pay it forward, but we weren't pleased.

The California State Annual Passes are NOT accepted here. According to the ranger, who was kind and informative, the park is ran by the county despite it showing up as a state park on Google. Still worth the $6 entrance fee though. Clean bathrooms, well maintained, ample parking, and good selection of easy trails.

Beautiful place to take a walk. Well maintained trails and picnic area. Excellent views on the Saddle Trail. Clean bathrooms. Very friendly rangers. It can be very windy so be prepared with a jacket.
