02/12 - Alhambra Hills

 


 
This was a mostly grey, calm before the storm, day with occasional burst of sunshine and nippy temperatures. Alhambra Hills only opened to the public on the first of February, so we are among the early visitors.

This is the first open space property purchased by the City of Martinez after the public voted to approve the necessary bonds in 2022. It encompasses much of the ridge between Reliez Valley Rd and Alhambra Ave. Once up on the ridge the views are incredible in all directions!

Mileage is not certain. Using the map posted on the Martinez website we walked about 2.5 miles. Using Google Earth the track is closer to 2.75. Various "devices" claim up to an additional mile. Plenty of up and down gave us a good workout in any case. There were 15 humans plus Murphy, the dog.
