Completed in 1997, this five-mile trail connects two of the most significant open space parklands in central Contra Costa County.

Colonel Juan Bautista de Anza’s expedition.
This Delta de Anza Regional Trail is named to commemorate the route taken by Spanish explorer Juan Bautista de Anza during his 18th-century expedition into the Delta region of today's East Contra Costa County.
