Visit Trails
Big Canyon and Eaton Parks offer more than 73 acres of natural open space in the city with many trails to explore. The trails are equipped with trail heads, directional signs and entrance kiosks with trail maps, which were added as part of the Trail Wayfinding Project in 2017. The Big Canyon and Eaton Parks Trail Map brochure provides information about the habitat and wildlife, park rules, trail use guidelines and a detailed map of the trails throughout the parks.
To report any safety hazards along the trails, please call Parks & Recreation at (650) 802-4421.
San Carlos Hillside Trails Plan
Through several years of community outreach and input meetings and efforts, the Carlos Trails Committee completed a Trails Connections Plan that was adopted by City Council in February 2007. The Plan identified and prioritized 14 possible connections to our local trail system as well as neighboring regional open space parks and trails, including Pulgas Ridge, and trails within the City of Belmont and the County of San Mateo.
