Bay View Trail in Coyote Hills Regional Park
The Bay View Trail is in Coyote Hills Regional Park in Fremont, CA (East Bay). You can get very beautiful views of the bay. There are many hiking trails as well.
I went around the Bay View Trails twice with small detours each time. This Trail connects to the Alameda Creek Trail (the connecting path though only 0.5 mile is very steep). There is also a path (Apay Way) to get to Dumbarton Bridge from here – although this path seems to be just as long and as windy and as unpaved as just going all the way on Alameda Creek Trail and the Shoreline Trail.
This Park/Trail has also been written about in detail here and here.
My full ride detail is at Cyclogz.
And lastly, the self portrait:
There is a $5 fee to park but you can avoid the fee if you park outside the Park near Patterson Ranch and Paseo Padre. There is a paved bicycle path that parallels Patterson Ranch into the Park.
