Coyote Creek Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Coyote Creek Trail, also called the Bay Area Ridge Trail, is a stunningly paved multi-use path that slowly transitions to gravel. The trail winds in between a number of ponds and has a little more shade at the turnaround loop.

Anderson Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Anderson Lake is actually a reservoir, built in 1950. In 2009 a study showed that the dam was at risk of collapse if subjected to the forces expected from an earthquake from a nearby fault. The water level has been lowered considerably due to this while the water company take down and then re-build the dam. It's a massive project!

Coyote Valley Farm

Highlight • Structure

This is a beautiful spot just north of Morgan Hill. In the east you have farms and flat country roads, and in the west there is more mountainous open space preserves.
