Mission Peak Trail Head

If you want to catch some great views of the bay as a reward for the switchbacks, this is totally worth it! You get an immediate work out with the ascent at the beginning of the hike. You can stop at the top or continue on along the ridge of the rolling hills.

Things to see and do in Niles
The Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum is located in what is now the historic district of Niles in the city of Fremont, CA. The museum is housed in the Edison Theater, a century old Nickelodeon movie theater, just half a block from the former site of the Niles Essanay Studios where Broncho Billy and Charlie Chaplin made films in the 1910s. It is dedicated to preserving and showing silent films and their history. The silent film historical work of one of the members of its staff, David Kiehn, was featured on 60 Minutes for demonstrating that a film shot in San Francisco entitled A Trip Down Market Steet was actually made a few days before the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.
