Little Yosemite via Canyon View Trail - Sunol Regional Wilderness, CA

April 28, 2017


Do you know there's a little Yosemite not so far from the cities in the Bay Area? You don't have to drive all the way to Yosemite National Park!

Sunol Regional Wilderness is just several miles from I-680 Freeway. The vast open space and forests situated in the East Bay hills north of Silicon Valley include rolling hills, hiking trails, rocks/boulder formations, rivers, waterfalls and wildlife.

Whoever named it, Little Yosemite in Sunol offers a series of waterfalls, river and impressive canyon views with big rocks and boulders. Although there's no monolith like El Capitan or Half Dome, the journey to Little Yosemite offers a pleasant hike that kids and family can enjoy.

Canyon View Trail is a good workout hike with some steep grade and it gets your heart rate going no doubt. If you prefer easygoing hike, the wide dirt road from the parking area is a good choice to hike to Little Yosemite.
