The trail starts just off Lucas Valley Road at the tennis courts located on Creekside Dr, San Rafael. The courts are across the street from the Lutz fire road where you finish the course. Please park on the street as the tennis court lot is small and is reserved for tennis players.
There are no restrooms anywhere near or on the course. Plan ahead.
Cell service is sketchy. Don't count on making a call.
Beware the trail split at the ‘Y’! Many have missed the turn and go off the course. See image 8 below.
