It then follows a paved path/sidewalk or bike lane for 2 miles to the Buffer Trail, which meanders 2.9 miles up and down hilly grasslands toward Benicia State Recreation Area, providing outstanding views. The last 0.3-mile section of trail is on city streets in Benicia, including a 0.1-mile undedicated section.
