Valle Verde Trailhead Lafayette

Highlight • Trail

Valle Vista is the trailhead for the paved Lafayette-Moraga Regional Trail, a popular rail-trail for cyclists. There’s a restroom here, but note: the EBMUD dirt trails are hiking-only and require a permit. The bike trail has been officially closed between here and Moraga since a 2019 landslide.

Redwood Grove

Highlight • Forest

Surprisingly tall second growth redwood tree giants, that seem to still have ideal growth conditions in this canyon.

Pinehurst Road descends into a grove of tall redwood trees just before reaching an old stone bridge. There is a tiny group of houses and a post office tucked beneath the towering forest giants.

Wilcox Station Staging Area

Highlight • Parking

The Wilcox Station Staging Area serves as the parking for the former Wilcox Station, now part of the Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve. The station was once part of the Sacramento Northern Railroad, an electric railway that operated between Oakland and Chico. It's worth noting that the trails in the Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve are designated for hiking only.
