Reviews
"The hawks were amazing, soaring and gliding. This is one of my favorite regional parks!"
"This place is gorgeous, very beautiful, many different trails and ways to explore, we did an amazing way, was kind of challenge but we did it, many cows on the way, only one was kind of aggressive, but she stopped on the middle of the way hehehe, if you go on your way and don't arrive to close they are very relax and beautiful, the weather was perfect many views over the mountains, and I definitely recommend this place, I guess have many entrance, we started close to the one near the Archery Range, we want to go back to explore more, there's also a camping ground I think, not sure if really it is, but soon I will update with more information."
"This place is a sanctuary, these trails are my path to a place where my spirit is able to visit with his spirit. I love to return for my ritualistic hike. Healing through nature."
"Brionrs is an absolute treasure in our own backyard. It is incredible to explore the land and many trails. Kudos to East Bay Regional Park District, thank you for this amazing place."
"This is a very good hiking area. The trails are pretty steep and can be hot as there is not much tree cover in many places. The trail is gravelly and is muddy in some places, so a good hiking shoe is recommended. Take plenty of drinking water as I did not see any water faucets or fountains. There is a small charge for using the trail and needs to be paid at the parking lot. Dogs are allowed but need to be leashed. Ensure you take plenty of drinking water for your pet. There was a restroom marked on the trail but I could not find it. This place is very well suited for horse riding. Though there were mountain bikers using the trail, but I found it difficult to handle the steep uphills and the gravel roads."
