Ulistac Natural Area

Join us for a leisurely bird walk through Ulistac. This urban open space with oak and riparian woodlands and seasonal wetland contains the last 40 acres of natural, undeveloped land along the Guadalupe River in the city of Santa Clara. Habitat restoration is ongoing with the removal of invasive species and the addition of California native plants making this park a great year-round birding destination. For more information on the park, visit Ulistac.org. 2 miles, flat dirt trails and paved ramps up to the levee.  

Meet: south park entrance. Nearest facilities across street at Lick Mill Park.
