Deep in a valley framed by oak-covered hills, with sailboats and sailboards skimming over its waters, Del Valle is like a lakeside resort only 10 miles south of Livermore.
The centerpiece of the park is a lake five miles long with a variety of water-oriented recreation, from swimming to windsurfing and boating, surrounded by 4,395 acres of beautiful land for hiking, horseback riding, and nature study.
Del Valle also is the eastern gateway to the Ohlone Wilderness Trail, 28 miles of scenic back-country trail and there's a campground with 150 sites as well as a marina with boat rentals.
Dogs must be on leash in developed area and under voice control and within sight in undeveloped areas.
There is a parking/entrance fee as well as a dog fee. Gate hours vary by season. The visitor center is open Memorial Day through Labor Day. Check the website for current fees and hours.
CAUTION: Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) may be present in the reservoir seasonally. Check current conditions before you go and keep dogs away from the water when blue-green algae is present; it can be highly toxic.
