Joseph D. Grant County Park

Posted on April 13, 2020April 30, 2020 by Vanda

Joseph D. Grant County Park
18405 Mt Hamilton Rd, Mt Hamilton, CA 95140
$6 parking

This park requires a windy drive up a mountain.  I recommend taking a smaller car since the two lane road is narrow and there are many bikers sharing the road with you. This is the largest Santa Clara county park and there are a variety of trails to explore.  For an easy trail, Hotel Trail is very flat and wide.  For some ups and downs, the Los Huercos Trail, Halls Valley Trail, and Yerba Buena Trail are great to get your calves burning.
