The Bay Trail is a flat and picturesque paved path around the wetlands of Shoreline Lake Park. The trail can be crowded on weekends, and there is not a lot of shade. Shoreline Lake Park was once a landfill but has been transformed into a 750-acre recreational space. Bikers can use nearly eight miles of scenic trails through sloughs and marshlands. Benches are scattered throughout for visitors to take a break. Check out the restored Rengstorff House, a nice example of Victorian Italianate architecture that offers free tours.

Shoreline Lake

Highlight • Lake

The Shoreline Regional Park was created in the 1960s, 70s and 80s from an area of landfill, wasteland, wetland and old farm land. It's now capped and managed as a leisure facility, with the 50 acre saltwater lake as the centrepiece. Used for sailing and other leisure activities, the perimeter path is a multi-user trail, perfect for a gentle bike ride.

Permanente Creek - Shoreline Park

Highlight • River

The creek almost regained a natural setting despite that the Bay wetlands along Mountain View were covered by landfill in the mid 20th century, and have been transformed into parks and golf courses later.
