Baylands Nature Preserve

Bounded by Mountain View and East Palo Alto, the 1,940-acre Baylands Preserve is the largest tract of undisturbed marshland remaining in the San Francisco Bay. Fifteen miles of multi-use trails provide access to a unique mixture of tidal and freshwater habitats. Many consider this area to be one of the best bird watching areas on the West Coast.

Includes the Lucy Evans Baylands Nature Interpretive Center, Byxbee Park Hills (Art Park), Emily Renzel Wetlands, Baylands Athletic Center (baseball and softball). There are wildlife observation platforms, benches and picnic facilities with barbecues (adjacent to the Ranger Station).
