Join Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST) at Calero County Park, one of the region’s most beautiful oak woodlands just south of San Jose on the westside of Santa Clara Valley. You will be led by POST ambassadors who will share about the natural history of the area and about POST’s contributions to Calero County Park, and the several other open spaces that make up an important area of protected habitat.

The hike is strenuous at about 4 miles round trip with about 650 feet of elevation gain. Guests will experience outstanding views of rolling California hills and the Calero reservoir with beautiful vistas of California’s iconic Springtime emerald rolling hills and open skyline. Hear marsh and meadow birds singing and raptors calling all in one hike! We will hike along the Los Cerritos, Vallecitos and Figueroa trails, through beautiful oak woodlands with views of Calero Reservoir, the Sierra Azul, Santa Cruz mountains, and Coyote Valley.
