Fremont Older Open Space Preserve

Lovely views. Leased dogs allowed. Lots of trail options - all hilly. Portable bathroom at parking lot. Arrived at 10am on a Saturday and lot was full had to wait for others to leave. Lots of deer. Some trails are wide and other get quite tight and narrow near drop off.

Quite a few trails are there along the folds of the mountain, part easy partly somewhat steep. We did the Hunter's Point Ans Seven Springs. The trail for the second one was very slushy and slippery, maybe due to rains earlier. View from Hunter's Point is ok - Stevens Creek Dr in a strait line, the circular Apple offices a little further, and tha buildings ofdowntown San Jose far away. But the real joy came from the verdant carpets on slopes around our path and the stylish mansions nestled between thick growth of greenery. On the whole a pleasant outing on a cool sunny morning.

Great place to hike if the weather is 75° Went on Monday morning the 21st around 10:30 am. You have to walk through an uphill neighborhood before you hit the main trail. Is all uphill. It's considered hard on strava. I was alone most of the trail. Saw a biker alone as well. It was 1:45 min of walking before I hit the top (took a few view breaks). Walking back down is easy. There is a street that has an apartment complex before you hit the private road that takes you up to the trail. Park there.

I love running and hiking at Fremont Older OSP. You can connect to Stevens Creek County Park from there. Parking can be tough on weekends. If you go before 7 am in the late Fall/Winter you can find plenty of parking.

Always a great place to go for a short hike. Parking can sometimes be challenging due to a small lot. Carpool (best), Come early (better) or park down the road leading up to Fremont older. Be aware that it is a bit steep in places and take it slow if needed. The hikes are priceless

Love the park, trails, views but hate the parking situation. There's only space for 10-15 cars, and unless you show up early morning or late afternoon, expect to wait for 10-15 if lucky.

Very easy to access from south bay. Parking can be a problem but nonetheless, the hike is easy, a loop take about an hour, great for weekday morning hike. Right now, the are a lots wild flower during this spring time, definitely worth to hike and enjoy a refreshing morning there.
