Trail Network

Main content start

Portola Terrace will construct new trails, which will provide safe, public access to designated portions of the large, wooded open space on the property in conformance with the Trails and Path Element of the Portola Valley General Plan.

Portola Terrace Loop Trail
The new publicly accessible looped trail route is about three-quarters of a mile in length. The trail loop will have three connections to the Alpine Road trail, making it accessible from either the north or south. The constructed trail loop will minimize habitat degradation, avoiding changes to the natural flow of water; and will not intrude into the extremely steep hillside.

Alpine Road Trail 
The Alpine Road Trail will be reconstructed and, to the extent feasible, relocated from the Alpine Road right-of-way onto Stanford land.
