The 307-acre Miller/Knox Regional Shoreline in Richmond, part of the East Bay Regional Park District, offers a beautifully landscaped shoreline picnic area, a fishing pier at a historic site and a hilltop with excellent panoramic views of the north Bay Area. The picnic facilities are on a tree-shaded lawn surrounding a saltwater lagoon. Several of the larger picnic sites are reservable for group parties.
A mile-long jogging and bicycling trail loops around the lagoon which is home and feeding ground to many waterfowl.
A hike to the top of the nearby grassy hills is rewarded by spectacular views in all directions. Mount Tamalpais, the San Francisco skyline, Brooks Island, and East Bay hills are all visible on clear days. The prevailing winds make for excellent kite flying.
• Dogs must be on-leash (six-foot maximum leash length) in the main part of Miller/Knox (the area west of Dornan Drive).
• Dogs are not allowed in the lagoon or on Keller Beach (at the north end of the park).
• Please be kind and pick up after your dogs.
• Park Hours: Open between 5 a.m. and 10 p.m. unless otherwise posted or permitted.
Keeping our trails beautiful and dog-friendly is crucial to ensure everyone enjoys the great outdoors. Some people want to ban dogs from public spaces, but we believe dogs are essential members of our community. They bring joy, companionship, and energy to our hikes. To keep our trails open to our furry friends, we must be responsible. Pick up after your dog, keep them on a leash where required, and respect other trail users. By doing our part, we can ensure that our beloved pups remain welcome on all trails, allowing your pack to continue exploring and enjoying nature together.
