Hike to Mission Peak
PO Box 5381Oakland, CA 94605-0381 Phone: (510) 635-0135About
Located in Fremont’s Mission Peak Regional Preserve, Mission Peak offers spectacular views of the South Bay. Getting those views, however, requires some work: A 6-mile, out-and-back hike ascends nearly 2,000 feet to the 2,517-foot summit. From the top, panoramic vistas include the Bay to the west and rolling hills to the east. In summer, bring binoculars to look down on hawks and other birds surfing on thermals.
