Beautiful lake the water is pretty clear, no swimming, though, and There is a sign saying that the fish in the pond is not edible. So probably the water is contaminated in some way, but it looks beautiful. Not sure how to find bathroom though. Good shades along the hike. The hike can be beginner friendly, there seems to be more advanced trails we didn't go down there, but overall a good experience. Dog friendly.

Park is peaceful and quiet with plentiful flora and fauna. We saw beautiful flowers and varieties of fern. There are many different trails. Each trail has its own unique beauty. We took nearly 3hrs. We started with lookout trail leading to vista trail. The view here is amazing as you could see the city. Then we moved onto fern trail connecting to tony trail and then back to lookout trail. We could see the reservoir too. As other trails the cell phone accessibility could be tricky hence I would suggest that before you start you have the offline maps.

❇️Stevens Creek County Park 🌿Nestled in the foothills between Saratoga and Cupertino, this Santa Clara County gem is a popular for hiking, picnicking, and kayaking. 🚣‍♂️With an 86-acre reservoir this park is a great place for kayaking and non-power boating. 🧺The Lakeshore picnic area is a favourite spot for families and the Bay Tree Picnic area has lots of tree shade right by a babbling creek. 🥾2-mile out and back on Stevens Creek Tony Look Out trail. A wide stroller-friendly trail. There is a steep incline for about 300ft just before you reach the reservoir. We saw a family power through that stretch with a stroller. 🛶Enjoy the clear waters, but remember, 🚫no swimming allowed! 🏊‍♀️🚫 🦮Dogs on leash are allowed on a few trails. 🚻Yes 🚗$6 Vehicle entry fees. Pay at the Chestnut parking lot IG:@TheOffshoots

We love hiking at Stevens Creek. It’s become a lot more busy during COVID-19, but if you are not going to the water area there are far less people on the trails. It’s great workout and offers amazing views of the valley, especially the Apple Campus. It’s very dog friendly on leashes and has nice wide trails too. Lots of trail options for just about any length of hike and a lot of parking too.
