Edward R. Levin Park
About
Edward R. Levin Park is a county park in California, managed by the County of Santa Clara County Parks and Recreation Dept. It sits about 2.4 miles from Milpitas, the nearest town. For mild, mostly dry weather, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in San Jose put May highs around 74°F and October highs around 76°F, with only a few wet days in each month. That station sits near sea level, so temperatures on higher ground in the area may run cooler. The park makes a convenient base for trails close by. The Calera Creek Trail and the Tularcitos Trail are each about 0.4 miles away, and the Monument Peak Trail is about half a mile off. A little farther afield, Calaveras Creek offers canoeing roughly 3.2 miles away.
