We will walk slowly to the end of the paved part of the Stream Trail which winds pleasantly through meadows and picnic areas, and into a grove of towering redwood trees and bowing bay trees, about ½ mile from the parking lot. We can turn around at any time.

 

Those who want to walk farther and faster can continue along the creek, where the trail is relatively flat, or can take the switch-back Chown trail to make a loop via the French Trail and Orchard Trail, for a total of about 2.5 miles.

 

There is a nice website for the park at http://www.ebparks.org/parks/redwood where you can find maps and other information.

 

We will have lunch in Montclair following the walk (restaurant TBD)
