Last year before everything when pear shaped with this covid-19 , i had the opportunity to visit my cousin in Danville , California when i arrived there it was coming to the end of summer season my cousin told me if i could come before the summer season ended i would see both of the good worlds on these beautiful Danville mountains the ending of dry summer and the beginning of spring making it's entrance coloring the mountains with all the spring flowers.
Honestly to me it was just great to get away on a vacation to see a different part of the world and with the town of Danville in California it can be pretty awesome whether it is summer or spring over there , it was nice to be able to wake up and breath that fresh mountain air right from his front door.
Weather it was the morning misty walks , afternoon blue skies walks and catching the sunsets over the mountains , it was all just breathtaking as far as your eyes could see with it's dry patches of grass and green patches of trees and the sunset lighting up the mountains of tall grass was just stunning to see.
No matter what trails you hike from the trails of Danville to Lafayette over to Briones and the Mount Diablo Regional Trails they are just spectacular every trail leads you to another and another and they just keep getting better like they say there are just over 100 trails covering a area of about 740 miles that is a lot of exploring and miles of walking but really ones you are on these trails you just don't want to stop walking.
The Danville Hills really offer you many types of trails from just moderate pace trails to bicycle trails , horse trails , running trails to viewing trails , some of the trails in Danville can be from 2 to 10 miles long and can take you up to heights of nearly 600 meters (2,000 feet) above sea level. We even saw a lonely Moose on the hills that day pretending to be King of the mountains 😅
The people living around these Danville hills have got to be the luckiest people on earth living in paradise waking to clean fresh air and seeing beautiful sunsets and tranquil nights would be like living on small piece of heaven on earth.
