Directions: 880 to Mission Blv. exit follow 2 miles to
Stanford av.
Trail Information: The Ohlone Wilderness trail starts in Fremont
and goes 28 or 31 miles depending on your route. You need to get a permit
through East bay regional pars department. You can buy one in Sunol. It is
a map of the entire trail. The Ohlone trail is tough, but fun. The highest
point is Rose Peak 3,600. Somewhere around there. It is only 32 feet lower
then Mt. Diablo.
Miscellaneous Information: You must carry plenty of water.
There is no potable water once you leave Sunol it's 20 miles to Del Valle from
that point. It is very remote. If your an ultrarunner you run it in 7-9
hours and thats with stopping and taking picture. If you want a Challenge you
can run a double. Out and back 62 I did it. just make sure you run it in
the Spring when the weather is nice. Not in the winter like I did.
