Murietta Falls, San Francisco Overview

Murietta Falls lies within Alameda County’s paradise Ohlone Regional Wilderness which is managed by East Bay Regional Park District, a home to extensive trail systems and notable preserves and regional parks of San Francisco Bay, California.

The 100 feet tall Murinetta Falls has been described as a “thread-like” waterfall which needs a steady flow from the rainwater in order to keep running. At an elevation of 4500 feet, the 12.5 miles hike through Ohlone Wilderness to the waterfalls is a challenging one. The trailhead for Murietta Falls is the Ohlone Wilderness Trail out of the southern end of Del Valle Regional Park, located south of Livermore. The one-way trail is paved against the characteristic green mounds of Ohlone and Sunol wilderness along with wildflowers, deciduous oaks, pines and ferns.
