Had an amazing hike yesterday at Almaden Quicksilver County Park. My girlfriend, pup (pembroke welsh corgi), and I did the Mine Hill Loop, started at Deep Gulch all the way around to Mine Hill. The first mile is an incline but once you conquer that the rest of the inclines will be nothing throughout the trip. Total trip was 6.33 miles, and highest elevation 1,651. Over all it was an awesome hike saw some amazing views of San Jose. Along the way you learn about history of The Mines and the towns around the Mine. Also got to see some wild life. If you take your pup beware of ticks.
