The entrance to this neighborhood loop trail is off the cul-de-sac at the end of Silver Springs Court and is clearly marked with a trail sign.
The trail follows the paved driveway on the marked right-of-way, meets a graveled path and climbs the steep slope to join the loop.
The trail provides views from the ridge between Moraga and Lafayette as it winds through oak and bay laurel woods and meanders across open fields. If you take the loop to the right, you will soon come to a picnic table in a meadow. Enjoy the view as you rest or picnic.
Loop Length: 0.78 miles
Surface: Dirt
Terrain: Moderate with ups and downs.
