Bay Area Ridge Trail: Skyline Ridge and Russian Ridge OSPs

Dogs No Dogs

Enjoy the Peninsula's finest views and most spectacular spring wildflower displays on these ridgeline trails through Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve. Climb through open grasslands to high knolls with gradual elevation gains and losses. These exposed ridge tops can be foggy and windy; trails on south- and west-facing slopes offer only intermittent shade.
