Did you know that there is a place called Stiver's Lagoon in the heart of Fremont which is so serene that you will forget that you are in the middle of a busy suburban city? Here you can smell the trees, hear tree frogs croak, experience nature, find some unique native vegetation, get muddy in a dainty little creek, climb trees and walk along a easy, short uncrowded trail. This place is just beside the Aqua Adventure Water Park near the intersection of Grimmer and Paseo Padre in the city Fremont, California. Yes... It is right there... You park in the Aqua Adventure parking and cross a creek on a wooden bridge to get there.

The trail is very toddler friendly (except for the occasional poison
oak along the edges), that you can let them loose and allow them explore and
get dirty.
Fallen trees to play on...
Lots of dirt to dig into...
Varied plant life to explore...
Trees to climb on...
A small creek to jump into and get muddy...
Just one word of caution about the poison oak and how to identify it.
Next time, I would go there with a blanket and picnic lunch, to relax, explore, get muddy and have fun with my children.
