Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve

Oakland

Walk through the guts of a 10-million-year-old volcano at Sibley, where tectonic shifts tilted Round Top on its side to expose lava flows, ash falls, and hidden stone labyrinths in old quarry pits. The trails serve up ridge-top panoramas of Mount Diablo and the Golden Gate, plus shady redwood detours when you need a break from all that geological drama.
