Product Description
Part of the acclaimed Afoot & Afield series, Afoot & Afield San Francisco Bay Area contains more than 100 carefully described trips in the nine-county region. Included are all the well-known favorites: Mt. Tamalpais, Point Reyes National Seashore, Henry W. Coe and Mt. Diablo state parks, and Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve. The book also features more remote parks and preserves, from the rugged Sonoma coast to hidden canyons south of San Jose, as well as regional open spaces and county parks from the East Bay hills to the Santa Cruz Mountains. This comprehensive guide to the best parklands in the Bay Area has something for hikers, runners, cyclists, and horseback riders. Trail-use symbols, at-a-glance information about distance, elevation gain, and difficulty, and precise driving directions accompany each trip. Carefully researched route descriptions lead you along the trail, and sidebars point out interesting aspects of human and natural history.
