Henry W. Coe State Park, State park in Santa Clara and Stanislaus counties, California.
The 87,000-acre wilderness area features rolling hills, steep ridges, dense oak woodlands, chaparral, and open grasslands across varied elevations and terrains.
The land began as Pine Ridge Ranch in 1905, when Henry Willard Coe Jr established a cattle operation that continued until his death in 1943.
Native American tribes first inhabited this section of the Diablo Range, developing sustainable practices for managing the natural resources within these mountains.
The park maintains over 250 miles of trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding, with the visitor center located at the former Pine Ridge Ranch.
This largest state park in northern California contains a designated wilderness zone of 22,000 acres where mountain lions, tule elk, and wild pigs roam freely.
