The Los Gatos Creek Trail is a cool spot for outdoor fun in Los Gatos, CA. It's perfect for walking, biking, or just chilling with nature. The trail runs through different areas and is managed by a bunch of folks from Los Gatos, Santa Clara County, Campbell, and San Jose. You can access it from various points like East Main Street, Miles Avenue, Oak Meadow Park, and Vasona County Park, but our favorite spot is located in downtown Los Gatos, and makes for a near 4.0 mile out and back hike. So, grab your gear and hit the trail for some good times outdoors!

Pet-friendly: Yes, outdoors and must be leashed and well-behaved

Soft adventure: Mostly, but there are some moderately challenging parts.
