Alameda Creek Trail
Trail Review:
The Alameda Creek Trail is a wonderful biking trail, with the north side of the trail being hard packed dirt and the south side being smoothly paved.
There are some trees on the trail, but not much. Sunblock is recommended.
The north side of the trail was pretty empty, but the south side was pretty busy with lots of walker and bikers.
The creek looked really clean, and we were able to make out turtles!
What Happened?
~5 miles, 1 hr 30 min, 70 ft of ascent
We started off at the Niles Depot, where we saw a train depart, jumped on the back of a caboose, then visited the mini train museum.
The girls and I then biked about 5 miles on the Alameda Creek Trail before they got too tired to continue. We loved the stress-free biking of the Alameda Trail and the girls were excited when I told them that there were lots of other trails like this which were car-free.
We would have gotten ice cream from across the street from the parking lot, but we were too hungry for lunch, so we headed off to find some delicious burritos instead.
