해안 산맥‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

Mount Diablo, is the Bay Area second-highest peak at 1173m (3849ft). The challenging climb features constantly fluctuating gradients averaging 8%, with tough sections up to 18% and a brutal 23% finish in the last 200m. The equally demanding descent requires good bike handling due to tight corners, potholes, and strong winds. The road to the top is open daily from 8 AM till sunset.

The Grove of Titans is a redwood grove in Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park. It has some of the largest coast redwood trees in the world and is one of the most popular hikes in the area.

I would have a look at the tide tables before planning a visit. There is a tidal pool where you can see fascinating marine life. Please don’t walk on any rocks anywhere here, it’s somebody’s home.

The Newton Drury Parkway closes to cars the 1st Sat of each month Oct-May. Very quite in the redwood forests as you cycle by (or coast if you're headed N to S).

The visitor center is staffed year-round, on the weekends, by the State Park volunteers to provide helpful information on the park's natural wonders. There are displays regarding various aspects of Mount Diablo State Park, including trails, wildlife, geology, and plant life. Gates are open from 8:00 am to sunset.

One of the fiercest peaks in the Bay. Always worth the effort. It’s often much cooler on the summit than the rest of the trails — there is a water spigot up there to fill up bottles. Also a store is open at some times. Don’t bank on it.
