Nice family friendly park. I've been going to this park since my first born was a baby because we used to live in Livermore. Easy hiking trails. Lots of beautiful spots for pics. Trails are labeled. Bathrooms are clean. Parking is $5 for the day. I like how they have wilderness info signs and have a small area with labeled flora. Decent place for birding. We saw water birds, woodpeckers, hawk, and titmouse.

I've been coming to Sycamore Grove Park for the past twenty years and this beautiful park still produces spiritual vitamins for me. There are red tail hawks soaring above in the sky which is so amazing to watch. There are two entrances to the park which are 2.5 miles from one another. You can walk the paved trail or gravel trail from one end to another. My Goldie Lola loves the park too!

One of my favorite places! I've rode bikes with my family, ran it more times than I can remember, trained for a marathon, ran a half marathon, raced a 5k, and is my go-to trail for walking with family and friends! It's truly a gem in Livermore!

Great park for running or light hiking! It's mostly flat, but you can hike up in the hills to get more of a workout.It's a short walk from Independence Park if you want to avoid the parking fee. The main paved trail is currently partially open due to Winter storms. Nice bathrooms for a park!

$5 all day parking with clean restrooms and well maintained paved trails.Great place for bikers, hikers, and families for a nice day out. There are plenty of trees for climbing, creeks for rock skipping, and wildlife to admire.

I was in the area and had a few hours to kill, so I decided to go for a walk at Sycamore Park. The paved roads and leveled elevation make it an easy walk. I loved the educational "stations" along the trails informing visitors of the park's heritage and wildlife! The park is quiet but feels safe, and great for solo walks. If you're looking to spend time outdoors while not being too far removed from Livermore, this regional park is perfect.

Lots of lounging sycamore trees line the low lying creek. Over 700 acres of flat, easy to walk paths. Hike, bike, ride horses, walk dogs on leashes, watch birds, and take pics. A bird watcher's paradise. A great place to for kids to run around. There's also a restroom if you gotta go. $5 parking lot, or park on street. So happy to have found this jewel.

Sycamore Gove Park is a fantabulous Park off the beaten path in Livermore! To say this park is a hidden gem probably wouldn't be accurate because it's well-traversed by locals. However, it's a park that really isn't known around the Bay Area. This park has it all: Old trees, a bridge, information charts (nerd high five), paved paths, gardens, clean bathrooms, streams, bike repair station, and...oh, incredible Sycamore Trees. These trees are a photographers' dream and it was not a surprise when I recently saw about five other people with DSLR cameras poking around. This park is an ideal spot for biking, jogging, and photography. The only caveat I would add is that in the summer it's hot as hell but that can be avoided by coming in the morning or dusk anyway. Parking is 5$ at the time of this writing and they have modern payment methods (i.e. the machine takes credit cards). This park should make your East Bay shortlist!
