Eden Landing Trail Access Now Open

On December 7, 2008, the Eden Landing Bay Trail access at the end of Eden Landing Road in Hayward is now open to the public. The 2.75 mile of trail consists of a staging area, benches and some interpretive panels about the area’s salt ponds and restoration. This trail and area is unique to the Park District in that the property is owned by the Department of Fish and Game (DF&G) and since DF&G allows duck hunting on its property, there will be certain days that the trail will be closed to the general public while the duck hunters will be allowed to drive the trail to access certain hunting areas.  The gates at the trail entrances will be closed and locked with sign posted informing the public that the trail will be closed for duck hunting and the DF&G contact number to call if any questions.  The remaining days for this season are Tuesday December 16th, Tuesday January 6th, Saturday January 10th and the last day of the season Thursday January 15th.
