Below the bridge, you can see the end of the Dumbarton Pier. There are likely to be fisherman at the end of this pier. On the shore ahead, you can see the Coyote Hills to the left, the San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge headquarters to the right, salt ponds in the foreground, and the Hetch Hetchy pipeline and railroad tracks to the south. Farther south, you can see the snowy white Cargill salt mounds at Newark. At 1.4 miles, you pass over the shoreline and the entrance to the Dumbarton Pier.
Power lines pass overhead.
You can see the power towers crossing the salt ponds, with narrow catwalks connecting them. At 1.53 miles, you pass by a levee trail on the north side of the bridge, which connects to Coyote Hills Regional Park. At 1.69 miles, you finally reach the end of the bridge trail at the junction with the bike path along Marshlands Road. Marshlands Road is now a frontage road for Hwy 84, but it used to be the approach to the Dumbarton Bridge. It runs to what's now the Dumbarton Pier.
