Hollister Hills State Vehicle Recreation Area (SVRA) is California State Parks' first SVRA. Located in the Gabilan Mountains, just an hour's drive south of San Jose, this unique park features over 6,800 acres and nearly 200 miles of trails in scenic and varied terrain.
** Saturday (day) we’ll be exploring the trail system throughout Upper Ranch. Hollister has a bunch of fun trails to test out the capabilities of your vehicle and it provides a safe environment to development your driving skills. Hollister has a trail rating system from Green Trails (easy), Blue Trails (intermediate) and Black Diamonds (Difficult). Hollister also has 2 obstacles courses, which we’ll explore as well.
** Saturday Night (overnighter) we’ll be camping at the Sycamore Campground. The camping area does have bathrooms and showers and provides waters. Bring your firewood so we can build a toasty fire in the provided fire pits. (If Sycamore Campground is full, we’ll set up camp at Obstacle Course Campground)
** Sunday we’ll continue to explore the trails and obstacles before heading back home. We could also stop to grab some food together in the town of Hollister!

We’ll be meeting up in the town of Hollister, which is 5 miles south of The SVRA park. The meet up location will be at the Safeway parking lot. There is a Safeway Gas Station that we can fill up for the trails.
