About East Coyote Hills

The East Coyote Hills are a small mountain range located in central California, just east of the San Francisco Bay. The range is characterized by rugged, rocky peaks and steep, forested slopes. The terrain is generally quite challenging, with numerous steep trails and exposed ridgelines. While not as well-known as some of California's larger mountain ranges, the East Coyote Hills offer a remote and untamed wilderness experience for outdoor enthusiasts.
