Difficulty: Easy

A park having 600 acres of grassland and oak woodlands, Rockville Hills Regional Park is home to diverse habitats and a dense broadleaf forest. The property was purchased in the 1960’s by the City of Fairfield with the original intention of developing the land into a golf course. Instead, it became a park filled with interesting trails.

Most of the park is comprised of oak savannah, with some grassland and topsoil covering volcanic rock. The park contains about 50 acres of chaparral, mostly chamise and manzanita. Apart from those mentioned, poison oak and coyote bush are also common finds. In springtime, linanthus, bluedicks, and clarkia can be seen.

It is best to follow the recommended trail. Start at the trail head and walk uphill. Ascend through the grassland until you come across dramatic rock formations. However, be vigilant. Aside from dense vegetation, rattlesnakes and king snakes have been spotted in the area. Moreover, there are also other interesting wildlife seen in the area such as songbirds, wild turkeys, and deers.
