the north trail

the trail walkthrough —->
Starting at the north entrance, we will walk through to Nelson Drive, focusing on the right then returning on the other side.

A volunteer tomato already wants community gardens here!

We pass by mature redwoods, and oleanders

On the right is the Charleston Center entrance, ahead we can see a small garden

Redwood doing what redwoods do, note all the sitting that goes in the Piazza lot

Oleanders and Italian Holly Oak

we walk past the mature Eucalyptus trees (not native)

Entrance to Piazza. On the right is a wide strip very good for sitting, on the left are three very old and beautiful native live oaks

Small parking lot area, used by the dance studios and tennis players primarily
our favorite place to sit for lunch is on the right behind the trees. A couple of live oaks have already sprouted here, no doubt brought by the squirrels from the three mature oaks across the road



can now see through past the batting cages all the way to Nelson Drive

This city property wall might be a good spot for art. The ground area on the right is mostly unkept, some elderberries or other vegetation will make this pretty


Glance inside at the city property

Then out to Nelson exit.

Glance left. Wind blows a lot across this meadow / field

Out the gate, a glance down Nelson


Now back in, walking up the right by the field






Short metal fence all along the walk
Area by the library book sale trailer, three oaks area




and finally out to Middlefield
