In April 2023, the Park District launched the Briones Pilot Project in the northeast corner of Briones Regional Park to test trail use strategies to enhance the visitor experience and trail safety, and protect wildlife and habitat. A key strategy includes alternating trail access on weekend days for different user groups.
On ODD-numbered weekend days, bikers and hikers are allowed on designated trails with no horses allowed, while on EVEN-numbered weekend days, horses and hikers are allowed on designated trails with no bikes allowed. Hikers are permitted on most trails in the pilot zone on all days. However, three new pilot project trails have been designated bike downhill only due to terrain and for safety reasons.
The pilot project also includes restoration of illegally constructed “bootleg" trails to protect wildlife and restore natural habitat.
