Sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay all the way to the Golden Gate straight ahead to the West, and far to both South and North Bay. On the other side of the lookout an informal trail leads down into the Rotary Peace Grove, started in the 1950s, with the trees now dominant and tall to the South along the ridge. To the East a part of the San Pablo Reservoir sparkles up from the valley.
