About Crockett Hills Regional Park

Ranch hills outside Crockett with trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Source

Located outside of the town of Crockett, the 2,124 acres of Crockett Hills Regional Park were likely hunting and gathering grounds for Native Americans, later were nineteenth century ranch-lands, and more recently were part of the industrial history of the region. The original ranch barn, milk-house, and corrals can still be seen in the Crockett Ranch staging and picnic area.

Trail names and mapped lengths come from OpenStreetMap; lengths count only the part inside the park boundary. Up-and-down totals (climbing plus descent, one way) and elevation ranges are estimates from USGS 3DEP elevation (about 15 m grid) sampled along the mapped line. Use the official guide map for the route and current closures.
