Take a creekside stroll or ride through the undeveloped broad Coyote Creek floodplain. Enjoy pleasant rest stops under large shade trees and awesome views of the nearby Coast Range. The trail provides an opportunity to appreciate what the Santa Clara Valley looked like before it was developed.

Much of the trail is in the sun, so plan the trip for cooler weather.<br><br>Equestrians use alternative marked trail.<br><br>This trail description is excerpted from the 2019 Guidebook.
