Pleasant picnic venue. The carousel, steam train and little farm kept children in the group entertained. The views up via fish ranch road is stunning.

I've visited Berkeley many times over the past several years while my daughter completed her Ph.D. This time we finally made it to Tilden Regional Park. We drove through admiring the beautiful scenery. we visited the miniature ride on railroad, we saw the carousel. My only regret is not visiting sooner. There are so many different attractions in this park,... More

There are many wonderful hiking trails through out the park. There are also some fun Family areas: steam train, Little Farm, the Merry Go Round and Lake Anza. While there are many wonderful parks in the East Bay, this is my personal favorite.

Tilden and the adjoining regional parks have a huge network of trails for hiking, horses and a few for bikes. Wildflowers, wildlife, a model farm, a merry go round, golf course and botanic garden.
