Castle Ridge Trail

 

Castle Ridge Trail was a beautiful hike with lush green hills all around. The six-mile trail had a mix of steep climbs and easy paths. As we walked, a soft fog rolled in, making the views even more magical. Sometimes, the fog cleared just enough to see the valleys stretching far below.

The air was fresh, and the sounds of birds filled the quiet trail. The cool breeze and earthy smell made the hike feel refreshing. At the top, the view was breathtaking, even with the mist floating through. Walking back down, the scenery kept changing with the shifting fog. The hike was peaceful, yet a good challenge. I already looking forward to coming back.

Tassajara ridge trail

 My friends and I went for a beautiful 4-mile hike on the Tassajara Ridge Trail in San Ramon. We enjoyed the rolling hills, fresh air, and breathtaking views of Mount Diablo. The trail had gentle inclines, making it a refreshing yet energizing walk. We chatted and laughed as we soaked in the peaceful surroundings. A short break at a scenic viewpoint gave us the perfect chance to take photos. After finishing the hike, we headed to a local restaurant for lunch to compensate the lost calories 😀. It was a day filled with fitness, friendship, and fun!

   

Little Yosemite Trail - Sunol Regional park

 The Little Yosemite 6 mile hike in Sunol Regional Park was full of life and beauty. Rolling green hills stretched endlessly, with water streams flowing after recent rains. Wildflowers were starting to bloom, adding bright colors along the trail. Squirrels were everywhere, burrowed along the path and running around busily.

The highlight was the Little Yosemite waterfalls, roaring in full swing. The powerful rush of water over the rocks created a stunning sight. A cool mist filled the air, refreshing after the hike. The sounds of flowing streams and rustling leaves made the trail feel peaceful.

With hills, waterfalls, wildflowers, and playful squirrels, the hike was a perfect nature escape left feeling refreshed and eager to explore other trails in Sunol.
