By DENNIS WYATT 209 staff reporter LIVERMORE — Del Valle Regional Park — just 50 minutes from Manteca — offers arguably the best spot in the Coastal Ranges to enjoy boating, fishing, hiking, and an abundance activities from picnics to flying radio controlled aircraft. The route from Livermore — via Tesla Road and then onto Mines Road and ultimately Del Valle Road — is popular with cyclists for its nice steady rise from the valley floor and its wide shoulders. Those bicyclists more ambitious as well as motorists out for a Sunday drive to take in the wild flowers and mostly unspoiled scenery stay on Mines Road and climb up a ways more toward the ridgeline to reach Mt.
Sweet boating lake, wilderness trail just 50 minutes away
