Just past the sign the trail starts up the road to the left.
There’s an interpretive display about nesting raptors on the cliff face of Corte Madera.
Look for the trailhead across the street from the parking area.
The orange line is the out-and-back route to Corte Madera. The purple line is the optional extension to Los Pinos Mountain, easily done on the hike back down from Corte Madera.
This is an uphill hike, but the gradient is easy for most of the way. There are some short steeper sections, but nothing too extreme.
There’s a small sandy parking area next to the start of the hike. There are no facilities, and no parking pass is required.

Wear long sleeves and long pants if you have a problem with shrubs brushing against you. There are only some short sections like this, and most folks will be fine with whatever they usually wear.
