Sunset Trailhead | Edgewood Park — Attraction in Redwood City

First off, dogs and bikes are NOT allowed on this trail. It's great that it has a lot of loops to hike, so you don't have to retrace your steps. Beautiful views of hills and sky, views overlooking the bay. Lots of trails have good shade, though some of them are mostly sunny. Wear sunscreen and bring a hat!

Abundant wildlife--I regularly see up close deer, western fence lizards, and little bunnies. I've also seen jack rabbits, snakes, skinks, and coyotes on more than one occasion.

In my experience they haven't been aggressive, but you never know.

There's a porta potty at the entrance, but no other bathrooms and no drinking fountains.

Park on the neighborhood streets. There's usually plenty of parking nearby.

The things that aren't as good about the Sunset Trail are that some of the trails take you to places where you can see and hear the freeway and power stations, which takes away from the beauty of nature.

First time ever it was a fun hike had many different directions to trail went from flat to Rocky to sticks coming out some muddy areas one side was really windy the other side was not little foresty areas open plain areas great views it ended up raining on us a little earlier than I expected but it was still okay still sell people out there walking when it was raining for the most part people on the trail friendly definitely recommend coming to check this place out we parked in the back so it's a little different but if you park at the main entrance the bathroom is right there they have a nature center and just passed that there's a little area with cement bench tables and barbecues I thought that was really cool reminding me hurdart park Thank you for taking the time to read...

A great park. Also this is the premier location for entering said park. You start off with excellent views and don't have to climb a bunch of switchbacks to get to the good stuff.

I've also seen the fuel break work along the perimeter which is much appreciated. Personally I would like the park system to go farther and put some sort of property tax on the ballot like Marin County. I would like the entire park to be managed for wildfire and not just a hundred foot perimeter. Much of the vegetation is very dense and quite...
