On this long and paved segment, you follow the creek bed beneath shady riparian cover and through Coyote Hellyer County Park.

Coyote Creek travels 31 miles from the Diablo Range to San Francisco Bay. On this trail segment, follow the creekbed through shady riparian cover, parks, developed areas, and open fields to Metcalf Park’s freshwater lagoons, the habitat for many year-round and migratory bird species. The wide paved trail travels a nearly level course and is an excellent bike ride, popular with families on bicycles, especially on weekends. A short, 1.1-mile on-street detour will lead you to the last section
of the trail from Phelan Ave to Williams Street.
