contra costa canal trail印象

We walk on this trail nearly every day when the weather is good. Much safer than dealing with traffic on the streets. Level paved walking surfaces and well marked crossings for streets. Lots of friendly walkers to chat with if you are so inclined. Dogs need to be on leashes. Poop bags are located in dispensers along the trail, as are trash cans. If you like to walk, give this trail a try, it goes for miles through Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill, Martinez, and Concord.

The trail is much better maintained in the high rent zip codes, leaving Pleasant Hill and Martinez in need of big repairs. Roughs spots can cause bike accidents. I cannot imagine strollers rolling safely either. Please do some repairs!!!!

A wonderful quiet oasis in the middle of urban life. Oak chapparal and coyote bush scent much of the trail as it winds its way throughout Walnut Creek and beyond. Great for pedestrian, bicyclists and people walking their pets! I always have a dog or two to walk when visiting and enjoy talking with locals out for walks- friendly and fun. Also a portion adjacent to many public park areas.

This trail is great for bike rides, dog walking, jogging etc. Great to be off the roads. There are many fun stops to make in different cities.

In my previous review of this section of trail, I mentioned potential safety issues in crossing Treat Blvd., especially if walkers and bikers were unwilling to go uphill to the traffic signal at Treat Blvd. and Navaronne Way. Since, my last review, the city/county has very fortunately put a section of fence down the middle of Treat Blvd. in this area. This fence makes it very difficult to try to cross Treat downhill from the traffic signal. Safety is a good thing, right? The speed limit on this section of Treat is still 45 mph.

There are beautiful views of the valley from most of the trail, and access to Lime Ridge Open Space.Presently herons are nesting over the trail along San Miguel Road, and we have recently seen ducks, egrets, herons, hummingbirds bluejays and more. Others have seen otters.The trail is smooth, bicyclists for the most part let you know they are there. I am older and feel more comfortable walking with someone, but we see many solo runners.

A very nice trail to walk or bike. Get to see some very interesting areas of the county. It make a giant U going between Concord, Pleasant Hill, Walnut Creek and Martinez. It is a gateway to the Iron Horse trail. Fun to bike to Walnut Creek or Danville, have brunch or lunch somewhere fun, and return. What is also nice is that crossing busy streets, most cars stop to permit people to cross whether on foot or biking. But just be careful--always a good idea to watch out for traffic on some of those busy roads. Great vistas; opportunities to see interesting homes that otherwise one would miss; a nice perspective on central county.I ride along the trail everyday on my way to/from Bart. Nice way to miss traffic.

A wonderful place to bike, roller blade, walk or run. By yourself or with the family.It goes by some wonderful parks and leads all around the Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill and Concord area. I believe you can make it to San Ramon using the trails.

It is fairly easy to run around Pleasant Hill in the morning. I stumbled upon the Contra Costa Canal trail and it was a very nice alternative to the neighborhoods. I don't know exactly how long it is, but it was long enough to accommodate my 5 mile run.

This is a great trail to get you to / from Mt Diablo. Alot of runners and cyclist's. cyclists watch out on a handfull of the corners, because I have found runners that don't watch their lane.There are other interconnecting trails to different areas of contra costa.
