Short hike. You can get up Eagle Rock and back again in about an hour. Good exercise, but not too crazy. There is an uphill climb with a great view from the top.

Food Scene
If you're brave enough to take on the drive, up Mount Hamilton Road, which is a little winding, then the Grand View restaurant has a fantastic view of the Silicon Valley area. It's about 15 minutes up Mount Hamilton road from our location.
Mount Hamilton Road is a 2-lane road, and whilst the lanes are narrower than in town, they are big enough for a large SUV to drive up.
