To Reach the Park

Coyote Hills Regional Park is located at 8000 Patterson Ranch Road, Fremont, CA 94555. The park’s main entrance is at the west end of Patterson Ranch Road/Commerce Drive in Fremont. From I-880, take Highway 84 west, exit at Paseo Padre Parkway, turn right, and drive north about one mile. Turn left on Patterson Ranch Road. This is the park’s entrance road. The entrance fee is $5.

After driving through the entrance, drive about another half mile, and you will see the Quarry Staging Area in your left hand side.  It is the first parking lot after the entrance.  We will meet here, and start from here.

There is a free parking lot at the left hand side before the entrance.  You may park your car here and walk through the entrance, and walk along the Patterson Ranch Road about 15 minutes to our meeting place.  (You can also do your car pooling at here.)

We will start from the Bayview Trail.  We then take the Red Hill Trail uphill, then downhill to the Visitor Center, and return to the Parking lot. For people do not like to take any slope hiking, they can continue the Bayview Trail back to the parking lot.  The whole route is about 4 miles.  We should finish our event around 4:00pm.
