About

Dr. Aurelia Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park is a hidden gem of redwood forest located just a few miles over the ridge from downtown Oakland. Once the scene of extensive logging in the mid-1800s to supply building materials for the San Francisco Bay Area, the park now features a stately forest of 150-foot coast redwoods that have replaced those cut down. This 1,833-acre park is home to a great forest of coast redwoods as well as evergreens, chaparral, and grasslands. The park offers several group overnight camping areas located throughout the property, including sites like Trail's End, Girl's Camp, and Fern Dell. All group camping requires reservations made at least 3 business days in advance by calling the East Bay Regional Park District Reservations Department. The naming of the rainbow trout species was based on fish taken from the San Leandro Creek drainage, which includes Redwood Creek flowing through the park. Wildlife within the park includes rare species such as the golden eagle and Alameda striped racer, as well as deer, raccoons, rabbits, and squirrels.
