Hikes in Hidden Villa
1 Jan 2012
Hidden Villa in Los Altos, CA has lush green trails next to creeks and trails with panoramic views of Silicon Valley. The park is best visited in Feb - April time frame when creeks are full of water. Nov - Jan are also great months to visit. Hidden Villa has an organic farm with animals and a hostel for summer camps. By combining trails from adjacent Rancho San Antonio Park, longer routes may be formed, for example, to Black Mountain.
