Enjoy hiking the trails on a "Lucky Seven" route with Docent Naturalists Nancy Weintraub, Bobbie Riedel, Lindsay Joye, and Sabra Abraham. This moderately-paced, light exercise-focused hike will take you along the Lower Meadow Trail to the Rogue Valley Trail. You’ll then traverse beneath the oak and bay canopies up the Wildcat Loop Trail (a less than 600-foot climb along the “Seven Switchbacks”) to enjoy a view of the bay. You’ll return down the shady Wildcat Loop Trail to the Coyote Trail.
Meet near the restroom at the bottom of the hill in the preserve parking lot farthest to the right. From I-280, take Foothill Boulevard south and turn right almost immediately onto Cristo Rey Drive. Continue about 1 mile, veer right around the traffic circle, and turn left into the park. After entering the preserve, turn right and drive approximately 0.3 miles to Lot 6.
