As you make your way through the Peace Grove, you'll see a narrow trail branching off to the left. Follow this trail out of the grove to a beautiful view of the meadows below -- and across the Bay to San Francisco.

Continue on this trail through low scrub, to the top of the hill. Take a left and follow the trail to the Wildcat Peak view point at the summit.

From the summit, you'll have a panoramic view, including a line of sight to San Francisco, toward Wildcat Canyon in the north, and back toward San Pablo Reservoir in the east.
