Trail Conditions

In the Bay area, trail conditions are basically muddy from December until April. The best conditions are just after the first rains in November and December, and in April in May before everything really dries out.

Due to the variety of land managers in the area there is no one resource for trail conditions. Below are some resources to find out wht you need to know.

Santa Clara County Parks manages Harvey Bear in Morgan Hill, Santa Teresa and Almaden Quicksilver in San jose, and lower Limekiln and Priest Rock in Los Gatos. In the future, Skyline / Sanborn in Saratoga may be open to bikes.

Midpeninsula Openspace Dirstrict (MROSD) manages lands along Skyline Boulevard including Sierra Azul, Saratoga Gap, Long Ridge, Russian Ridge, El Corte de madera (Skeggs), and Purissima Open Space Preserves.

Soquel Demonstration Forest is managed by the California Department of Forestry, but check the Stewards of Squel forest and trailworkers.com for trail conditions and trail work.
