Outside San Jose Is A California Paradise With Redwoods, Mountain Trails, And Scenic Camping

While California has a record-topping nine national parks and 280 state parks, the Golden State's love for protecting its wild and natural spaces doesn't end there. Counties at the regional level take wilderness preservation seriously, too. This means even those in large metropolitan areas can find scenic parks and outdoorsy joys nearby. Urbanites in San Jose, for example, can drive about 30 to 40 minutes and find themselves on the redwood-covered slopes of Sanborn County Park.
