Description
This trail starts out at either the park entrance on Dillon Point Road or the Military West parking lot. From either parking area, enjoy a paved surface as you search for wildlife in the tall weeds along the wetland. If you don't have any luck with looking for wildlife, peaceful views of the Carquinez Strait will make up for it. Along the way, feel free to jump onto either Wetland Spur to get up close and personal with the water's edge.
