DE BORBA

Trail Description: De Borba trail goes  straight up the hill from the parking lot and continues along the crest for about 3/4 of a mile until it hits the Loop Trail. It's a pleasant mixture of grasslands and Oaks with good views that can be hiked in about 30 minutes. For a longer and slightly more interesting hike back, turn right at the Loop Trail junction for marsh and bird views.
