Tiburon Uplands is a nature preserve, rather than a developed park.
It’s wooded acres are tucked into a canyon along a quiet stretch of Paradise Drive near Tiburon, about one mile south of Paradise Beach Park.
A short but strenuous one mile loop trail winds through mature woodlands and allows visitors to enjoy a variety of native plants and animals, as well as excellent bay views from higher elevations.
The property adjoins the Old St. Hilary’s Open Space Preserve near the ridgeline.
The preserve provides a secluded natural experience with few recreational facilities, and is not easily accessible.
