* Coyote Creek Trail within Selma Olinder Park was partially funded through a grant from the Santa Clara Valley Water District.

 

The Coyote Creek Trail is one of the network's longest trail systems and connects to County reaches of the same trail system.  Several City and County parks can be accessed from the trail. The Coyote Creek Trail provides views of the waterway and the riparian environment. The gravel portion of the trail north of Montague Expressway connects to the Highway 237 Bikeway.  In addition to the local environment, trail users can enjoy the artwork "Ripple Effect and Run River Run."  at the midpoint between Montague Expressway and Tasman Drive.  The paved section south of Hellyer Park is great for biking and rollerblading as well as walking. Access the trail from several points, including Stonegate Park along Tuers Road or from the County's Hellyer Park. 

The County’s web site, www.parkhere.org provides maps of the reaches within its jurisdiction.
