600 Taft Avenue Albany, CA 94706 Albany Hill Park rises 338 feet above sea level is a local landmark. The park is open space except for the pleasant eucalyptus tree lined rustic trail.
The natural value of Albany Hill lies in the surprising richness of the flora and faunas the current tally is 134 native plants reported from hill and creek, including 2 orchids, 3 different roses, and 7 kinds of fern. Many of these plants were of great importance to the local Ohlone tribes whose grinding holes remain in the bedrock, such as coast live oak (Quercus agrifolia), California hazelnut (Corylus cornuta var. californica), soap plant (Chlorogalum pomeridianum), and yarrow (Achillea millefolium).
There are a couple of benches along the trail where you can stop and take in a view of the San Francisco Bay or downtown Albany & El Cerrito.
