The Bay Area’s Tri-Valley region, just 45 minutes east of San Francisco, is a sunny paradise for hiking dogs and their people, rewarding both with lots of wide open spaces and scenic vistas.
The four cities that make up the Tri-Valley region, Pleasanton, Danville, Dublin and Livermore, each have something special to offer DogTrekkers. What they all have in common is their proximity to the vast East Bay Regional Park system where dogs can hike with their people off-leash in many open space and undeveloped areas, provided they are under control at all times.
Some of the most popular dog-friendly hikes in the Tri-Valley are:
- Pleasanton: Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park
- Danville: Sycamore Valley Open Space Preserve
- Dublin: Dublin Hills Regional Preserve
- Livermore: Del Valle Regional Park
Our friends at Visit Tri-Valley have created a colorful and informative trails guide that focuses on these trails and hikes plus many more. You can download it here.
And the reward after your hike with your best friends—your choice of Tri-Valley’s famous beer, wine and ice cream trails. See you soon on the sunny side of the bay!
