Crystal Springs
Crystal Springs Regional Trail is a wonderful walking, jogging and cycling paved trail with great views of the Crystal Springs reservoir. Our favorite walking spot is the Sawyer Camp segment. It is ~10 minute drive from the house to get to the trail. The photo above is from Sawyer Camp.
Bay Lands Trail
When its hot out, taking our dog for a walk down on the bay lands trail is a nice break. There’s always a breeze off the bay and lots of waterfowl to see. If you’re lucky - you might see one of the black eared jack rabbits that live in the banks. Very flat, paved trail great for walking, running and biking.
Our Favorite Walk - about 2 miles - To get to the start, put into your mapping app: Island Dr & Bridge Pkwy, Redwood City - about a 15 minute drive.
Highlands Park
Highland Park is a 2 minute drive or a 10 minute walk from the house. It’s a great place to walk your dog and the back field has a 1/4 mile running track — completely flat. There’s typically a breeze blowing off the hill and usually kids playing baseball or soccer.
