Went for a walk/hike today. I forgot the camera, so no pictures.
Not really a hike as the roads are really nice...more of a walk... but we were away from civilization...so sorta hiking. Lots of fun. Dogs are allowed on leash. There are some areas you could go off leash, but we ran into horses and bikers so off leash wouldn't work for me. For well behaved dogs, you could probably get away with it if you hike in far enough, but the rules are on leash
Directions: From Highway 101, exit San Martin Ave. Go east for 2 miles and the entrance to the park is on the left side.
You have two choices, up or flat. There is a nice flat paved 2 mile loop you can do (I saw lots of runners, walkers with kids, and bicycles down on the flat). I chose up.
Up is gravel or dirt wide roads. There are a number of gates to go through as you walk along. We walked about 1.5 miles in and then out on the Harvey Bear trail. Beautiful views. Saw some cows. Ran into a couple of horse back riders, 2 runners, 2 bikers, 1 biker/dog combo. We went up there around 10:45am so probably this is a busy time.
This is a really a nice place to walk if you are in the Morgan Hill/Gilroy area.

Yes, saw cows and cow poo, you are Hiking (I consider anything that goes straight up hiking) in a cow pasture. But it is a great hike.
it was a cool day, and I was glad I brought water for the dogs. So I'd advise bringing it anytime if your going up into the hill.
But an awsome hike with my Awsome sister!
