Sink Your Roots at Redwood Regional Park

Posted on January 10, 2019March 20, 2020 by Vanda

Redwood Regional Park
7867 Redwood Rd, Oakland, CA 94619
$5 to park at Canyon Meadow Staging Area
Get Directions
Free parking at Skyline Blvd and other entrances
Everyday 5am – 10pm

There are different entrances but I went to the paid one for flush toilets and extra security.  From Canyon Meadow Staging Area, I took the Stream Trail -> Tres Canyon Trail -> French Trail -> Bellflower Trail -> Mill Trail -> back to Stream Trail.  My original plan was actually to take the Stream Trail -> Bellflower -> Redwood Peak -> West Ridge Trail but I took the wrong turns and was too lazy to go back.  The trail markings aren’t the best so use good judgment and common sense.  Make sure you pick up a map if you decide to diverge from the Stream Trail.  Time spent hiking was around 2 hours.  Stream Trail is mostly flat whereas the Tres Canyon + French Trail + Mill Trail + Bellflower Trail will have you huffing and puffing.

During the winter months ladybugs can be found here on the Stream Trail
The best way to find them is looking close to the ground.
