The hike from Razorback Ridge trailhead to the Windyhill summit is mostly through shaded sections. Sections of it kept cool from the fog rolling in from the Santa Cruz Mountains. The final section, Anniversary Trail is out in the open but has nice views of the bay.

From up here on the ridge you get great sweeping views across the foothills. On a clear day you can see out west to the Pacific Ocean.

Borel Hill is my favorite place to watch spring flowers. The western slope near ancient oaks (5-10min west of Borel Hill) are covered with orange California Poppies and purple flowers starting in April. Borel Hill itself peaks around mid May and has a wide variety of flowers. The show lasts only a few weeks until end of May. The peak time and flower intensity varies from year to year, so come several times between April and May. There is small summit NW of Borel Hill and a narrow dirt trail leads you to a rock within 2 min. The rock is big enough for 2-3 to sit on. On a sunny day, the rock is nice warm even if the air is cold. Good views on the ocean and the Bay.

Wunderlich Park, spanning 942 acres, is picturesque, with a beautiful mix of chaparral and redwood forest, expansive meadows, and striking oak and madrone trees. There is plenty of open space featuring a network of lovely hiking trails. Donated to the county by Martin Wunderlich, this area includes what was once the Folger family ranch. The stable and surrounding buildings have been meticulously restored, serving as a cherished historic landmark for the community. Dogs are not allowed in the park, so you'll need to leave your pup at home.

This charming park is just 3.5 miles west of Highway 84. There are barbecue pits, a playground, spacious grassy meadows, and plenty of hiking and riding trails. It's an ideal destination for a picnic or a peaceful stroll through the enchanting redwood forest along the park's beautiful winding paths. Dogs are not allowed in the park, so you'll need to leave your pup at home.

Gray Whale Cove State Beach is a beautiful, secluded beach located nine miles north of Highway 92 along Highway 1. This 800-foot stretch of white sand is nestled in a small valley known as "Devil's Slide" and is shielded from the highway by cliffs. The beach is named for the gray whales often spotted here during their spring migration. Facilities include free day parking, chemical toilets, but no water, so keep this in mind as you ride.

The top of Borel Hill has an elevation of 2,572 feet and offers panoramic views of the city below as well as views of the ocean in the distance.
