Deer Hollow Farm Trailhead — Attraction in Cupertino

We enjoyed a nice, relaxing 3-mile hike (actually more like a walk) to the historic Deer Hollow Farm. Because it was a beautiful late February day, the traill, which has a lot of signage) was crowded with lots of families with young kids; this speaks to the easy nature of the walk. The trail was wide enough, though, that it never seemed crowded so the walk was very pleasurable. The historic farm, with some structures dating back to the 1850s, is pretty cool -- and a nice learning tool. Definitely a good place to take a break and check out before heading back. Just be aware that parking can be difficult. Despite the many parking lots, a;; were full well before noon due to the beautiful weather. And depending on where you park, it can be a bit of a jaunt just to get to the trailhead. Overall, definitely a good way to get some exercise in a cool environment. And if you have young kids, great place...

We parked here to hike and visited the farm as well. Well paved path. Good for strollers and kids. It's a bit of a distance to the farm. Best time is early morning to avoid the sunshine. If coming after 11am, bring lots of water, sunscreen and hat. Good walk, generally easy to moderate. Parking was fairly packed when we arrived at 10am on weekend and had to wait and got lucky to Park when someone left. There are several parking in the vicinity but all get packed soon. Arrive early...

Lovely walk from any of the parking lots. View the farm animals, goats, pigs, chickens. Watch for the cat too.

Check out the garden with signs marking what the plants are.

You can even have a picnic at the tables under the open barn

You'll see many wildlife on your way, deer, turkeys, rabbit, quail just to name a few. Must be quiet to find them as they are shy...
