Like all the trails in the area, the Almeria Trail climbs steeply up the hillside. There are some shaded areas to rest as you climb toward better views.

While the trail does flatten out at the top, there is quite a climb to get there. Like most trails in the park, you get a good view of the ocean if you turn around.

Like all the trails in the area, the Almeria Trail climbs steeply up the hillside. There are some shaded areas to rest as you climb toward better views.
Pillar Point Harbor from Clipper Ridge Trail
At the intersection of the Clipper Ridge Trail and the Almeria Trail, you get good views of the Pacific Ocean, Pillar Point Naval Station, and the marina.
A grove of eucalyptus trees creates shaded relief at the end of the trail. The trail emerges at the parking lot.
The San Carlos Trail is fairly open. Cortaderia jubata, a weedy pampas grass, grows along the trail.

The top of the trail flattens out and several side trails for mountain bikers connect with the Clipper Ridge Trail. The Flat Top Trail circles to the right and then descends back toward the parking lot.
