Trails where I once held my father's hand are no less worthy destinations today, especially as they are being connected to form the 400-mile Bay Area Ridge Trail, a circuit of the Bay that is now more than half completed. Merely knowing about this grand circuit changes the way I think about my experience in subtle ways. I should be able to take each mile and moment at face value, but the Ridge Trail emblem on each signpost bears a named, formal connection to the entire Bay Area. It gives me the feeling of being in another part of the American West so vast that I can never fully know it in one lifetime, despite my luck to call it home. If You Go For more information.
Several sources can provide information on the parks in the Bay Area.
