  The Los Gatos Creek Trail is a fantastic resource for a ride, offering a mix of paved and unpaved sections that span approximately 11.9 miles one-way from San Jose to the Lexington Reservoir.

Campbell to Vasona Paved From Vasona Park to Campbell Park, passes through Los Gatos Creek County Park; very popular and can get crowded on weekends. This is the segment we rode. Around 7km one way. A few up and down hills. Not too bad. Vasona to Downtown LG Paved Scenic lakeside riding; look out for the Billy Jones Wildcat Railroad near Oak Meadow.

Look like there is a planned northbound trail not ready to open yet (below). Current Conditions & Safety Surface: Mostly asphalt and well-maintained. Some smaller neighborhood sections near the southern end (closer to Saratoga/Cupertino) still have gravel patches, so be mindful if you’re on th...
