Bay Area Ridge Trail: Hood Mountain Regional Park

Dogs Leashed

A vigorous uphill trip begins at CA 12 and follows Hood Creek through forests and meadows, past several ponds, and then climbs to the top of 2,730-foot Hood Mountain for distant views. After the first mile, the 2017 Nuns Fire burned through most of the trail corridor.
