Hike at Almaden Quicksilver County Park, 5.5mi/2.5hours 961 ft Moderate Hike

About this event

Let's hike a moderate on elevation loop trail that has a nice views of the Guadalupe Reservoir, the South of San Jose and gorgeous rolling hills.

Trail's summary:

• Length: 5.5 mi, moderate loop,

• Elevation gain: 961 ft.

• Not much shade.

ATTN: This trail is a combination of four trails, with many intersections, so if you think you may want to separate from the group/slow down at some point, make sure you get the parks's map and get known (from the leader) on how to proceed on your own, otherwise a wrong turn can lead to a different part of this large park.

Please, bring:

• layered cloths,

• shoes appropriate for a unpaved trail,

• hat,

• water,

• sunglasses.

• sunscreen.
