We have a peninsula playground! So, what are your favorite outdoor activities? (Well, before the evening fog rolls in anyway ;-)

    I live close to a great place to do some easy hiking: Glen Park Canyon. But I'm new to the area (as of June), so I would love to hear what everyone else likes to do!

    I live in the TRI VALLEY area so weather here is much nicer IMO which is why there are tons of people who are out doing activity.
    Once school starts I can hit the road again after dropping off my daughter at school.

    I just moved to the North Bay, to Petaluma. I haven't found many places for hiking or anything here but I used to live in San Jose and then Foster City. I used to go hiking a lot in San Jose, to Alum Rock Park and other places. And go walking by the lagoon in Foster City.

    East Bay here. A great spot for a casual walk or even a more aggressive hike is the Lafayette resovior.

    Great to connect with locals!!

    Currently, I'm in Fremont & will be moving to Hayward.. So, there's the 2.5 mile trail around Lake Elizabeth. And there's the 5.6 mile hike back & forth at Mission Peak.

    I posted a thread the other day seeing if ppl would want to get together to do a hike up & down Mission Peak! No one posted :[
    But YAY BAY AREA <3

    Seems I heard about a huge park with trails and horseback riding in sonoma county... check it out and let us know too :) Foster City is a nice place to walk around for sure!

    Mt. Diablo is in near me. Haven't hiked it yet though. Maybe this fall when it's cooler.

    I live in North Beach and usually go run from pier 39 to the ferry building and back. I also love going to Crissy Fields and running along the beach on the weekends :)
