Description:
The Bay Trail is a planned recreational corridor that, when complete, will encircle San Francisco and San Pablo Bays with a continuous 400-mile network of bicycling and hiking trails. It will connect the shoreline of all nine Bay Area counties, link 47 cities, and cross the major toll bridges in the region. The Bay Trail master plan was completed in 2001.
Once built, the San José portion of the trail will be approximately 13 miles in length and follow the shore some roadways in Alviso. Although the trail isn't open, you might enjoy visiting Alviso and the USFWS Interpretive Center located near Spreckles Avenue. Also in the area, consider visiting Sunnyvale's Bay Land Park located to the north or using the Highway 237 Bikeway for commuting.
Status:
The San José portions of the Bay Trail are still in the planning stages and are currently not open to the public. The County portions of the Bay Trail are open - for a more information: Click Here.
