Santa Teresa County Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Santa Teresa County Park is 1,688 acre park in the hills of south San Jose, California, USA. Most of the park consists of non-native grassland and mixed oak woodland. Native wildflowers displays are common in late winter and early spring in the serpentine soil in the northwest and southern sections of the park. Elevations range from 64 m (210 ft) in the northeast section to 352 m (1155 ft) at Coyote Peak in the eastern section.
The park also contains a picnic area in the Pueblo Day Use Area, an 18 hole golf course operated by a concessionaire, and an archery range.
The main entrance to the park is a large parking lot by the Pueblo Day Use Area and is accessible via Bernal Road from the east. Other entrances with limited or no parking include the Joice Bernal Ranch in the northwest, an entrance from Avenida Espana on the northeast, and the Stile Ranch entrance from Almaden Valley.
