About this Preserve
212 Acres | 0.4 Miles of Trails
Foothills Preserve is located in the Adobe Creek watershed above Hidden Villa Ranch and adjacent to Palo Alto's Foothills Park. Here you'll find a grassy ridgetop surrounded by steep chaparral-covered slopes, with oak-madrone woodland in the ravines and on the north-facing slopes. A single trail leads from Page Mill Road to the knoll offering a fine view of the South Bay. Visit the preserve page for detailed information about preserve use, accessibility, and amenities.
