Iron Horse Regional Trail
- Iron Horse Regional Trail
The Iron Horse Regional Trail is a pedestrian and bicycle rail trail in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area in California.
This trail is located in inland central Alameda and Contra Costa counties, mostly following the right-of-way of the former tracks of the Southern Pacific Railroad. It passes through the cities of Pleasanton, Dublin, San Ramon, Danville, Alamo, Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill and Concord. When completed, the trail will span from Livermore in central Alameda County to Suisun Bay at the northern edge of Contra Costa County, a distance of over convert|40|mi connecting two counties and nine communities.
The trail has several bridges to help traffic flow better, the most notable being the bridge over Ygnacio Valley Road in Walnut Creek. Others are in the planning process.
