Overview
Redwood Regional Park is a 1,830-acre park in the Oakland Hills, part of the East Bay Regional Park District. The park is home to a pristine coastal redwood forest, with towering trees that regrew after logging in the 19th century. The park offers hiking trails through the redwood grove, along Redwood Creek, and through the surrounding hills. Redwood Regional Park is a peaceful, natural retreat within the urban East Bay, and one of the best places to see redwood trees close to Oakland and San Francisco.
