A mile-long trail that ascends from the base of the park, weaving through a coast live oak and California bay woodland.

Serpentine Trail

Serpentine Trail traverses the center of the park from roughly east to west and follows along the northern base of Edgewood's crowning ridge. The trail passes through thick golden grasslands, which in the Spring, bloom densely with colorful wildflowers, making this, along with the Sunset Trail, the premier flower-viewing area in the park.

A 0.9-mile trail that climbs up a steep but well manicured gravel surface under shady oak canopy, then emerges onto the rolling serpentine grasslands of the park. Horses are welcome.

Clarkia Trail

The Clarkia Trailhead lies to the south of the park, off Cañada Road, about a half mile south of the Edgewood/Cañada Road intersection. Limited roadside parking is available. Clarkia Trail is the only trail that traverses the southern end of the park, starting in grassland and then transitioning into warmer, more shrubby chaparral with blooming annual plants and shrubs. There is a photogenic rock outcropping approximately 0.3 of a mile up from Cañada Road. Clarkia Trail ends in a junction with the Sunset Trail near the Sunset Trailhead.
