Open Space Advisory Committee Hikes and Events aim to connect the local community with the trails and open space throughout San Ramon.
Pre-Registration is required
Outreach hikes and events are free.
Hikes will include periodical stops for participants to ask questions, review points of interest and to highlight the open space. Be prepared by bringing water and wearing proper footwear.
Stream View Trail Loop will start at the beginning of the Bishop Ranch Open Space on Morgan Drive. The loop consists of multiple trails and pathways to return hikers to their original starting location. Follow the Grey Fox trail into the Bishop Ranch Regional Preserve on the gravel path and turn left on to the Stream View Trail. Hikers will enjoy an earthen path through a grove of trees providing shade as they ascend to the top of the ridge following the Norris creek. At the top of the ridge, hikers will turn left onto the Red Hawk Trail which will provide many scenic views of the San Ramon Valley and Mount Diablo. Hikers will enjoy a flat path along the ridge line until they begin their descent down the Grey Fox trail and back to the starting location at Morgan Drive. The trails in the Bishop Ranch Regional Open Space are owned and operated by the East Bay Regional Park District. Please follow all posted rules and good hiking etiquette when hiking the Grey Fox Trail.
