Great moderate hike full of majestic views of the east bay. Definitely recommend it.

Great lush hike with stunning views. Multiple entrances; you could spend a few weeks mapping it out and revisiting your favorite parts. It's moderately challenging. There are trails that lead to the same place, so you can tailor your challenge level. Not so popular that you're rubbing shoulders with strangers, but I don't think I've ever had the trail to myself. Expect dogs to be off leash.

Shinhoo Woo

It was moderate difficult hike. There is a road in between if you select one of the gate. I think the road is part of the trail. Keep walking up to find the top of the trail. Beautiful panorama of walnut creek town you can see on the top. Very close to the Bart. Took 1 hr to go back and forth.

Beautiful hike, pretty easy, gorgeous views. Dogs allowed. Would be even more amazing when the grass is green!
