Almaden Meadows Park — Attraction in San Jose

Lots of grass area but watch for potholes and mud pits. Playground is on one end and grassy area extends avoid to other end so it's easy to keep dogs on grass but away from playground. The hill behind and above the main park is a nice short hike and provide nice views. Be careful in the hill however as coyotes and homeless have occasionally been seen. I wish they would build a bathroom or have some porta potties and the drinking fountains have not been working for months.

Nice park on the small hill, my son loves it. Park structures are also well maintained, not crowded at the same time. Plus you can do small hike to go on the other side of the hill and then nice green slope which you can enjoy while going down. Parking is easy...
