About Point Pinole

Protruding into San Pablo bay, Point Pinole offers a pleasant space to picnic, visit the ruins of old Dynamite production facilities, fish along a well maintained pier, and take in the calming views along the Pinole shoreline.

Ample hiking trails circumscribe and criss cross the area offering differing vantages and points of interest. The best introduction is a 4.9 mile loop hike from Cook’s Point Trail, to Owl Alley, to the Bay View trail. Diverse birds can be found throughout the surrounding marsh lands.

Total distance: 4.86 mi
Total climbing: 354 ft
