The Palo Alto-Los Altos Bike and Pedestrian Path, also known as the Hetch Hetchy Trail, is a well-maintained multi-use route that connects Los Altos Avenue to Arastradero Road. It’s popular for biking, running, and hiking, offering scenic views and access to parks like Terman Park, Bol Park, and Barron Park Donkeys. The trail includes a mini library and is part of Henry M. Gunn High School's recommended walking routes.

Lovely shortcut from LA to PA. A couple of things to watch out for: 1) near the LA end, the trail crosses a street. It's a cul-de-sac so traffic isn't an issue but the nearly curb shaped 'ramps' are worth noting. Also be careful going over the bridge as sightlines are limited and there could be other users
