Take a trip through Mexican and early California history on two routes.

This is where the Bay Area Ridge Trail splits and heads toward either the Carquinez Bridge or the Benicia-Martinez Bridge on the Carquinez Strait Scenic Loop Trail. Take a trip through Mexican and early California history on these routes, which follow the waterfront through the thriving towns of Vallejo and Benicia. Enjoy brisk breezes and occasional fog as you watch the San Joaquin and Sacramento Rivers funnel into San Francisco Bay. This route travels mostly level trails, including sidewalks, paved and unpaved trails, and footpaths.

Elevation Gain/Loss 495 feet/225 feet (from park entrance at Dillon Point Road to Carquinez Bridge Overlook); 90 feet/45 feet (from park entrance at Dillon Point Road to Military East)
