East Bay Bike Trails: Road and Mountain Bicycle Rides Through Alameda Counties and Contra Costa

Stretching from the Carquinez Strait in the north to Fremont in the south, and from Brentwood and Livermore to San Francisco Bay, the East Bay offers recreational cyclists a spectacular choice of routes and terrains. This newly updated guide’s comprehensive list of destinations include the heavily wooded hills above Oakland and Berkeley; orchards and farms around Brentwood; eerie windmills in Livermore; the wetlands around Newark; Danville’s dramatic Mt. Diablo; and more. Each ride contains detailed maps, directions with mile markers, elevation profiles, historical background, and points of interest.
