"A beautiful retreat from the hustle and bustle of the Bay Area"
This beautiful state park just outside San Rafael, not far from Point Reyes, is a great North bay day trip. There are hiking and bike trails which meander through redwoods and mixed forest. There is camping available and wildlife such as deer, raccoons and foxes call this lovely park home. My family especially enjoyed strolling through this park in late October to enjoy the fall foliage
