Picturesque and serene, Almaden Valley is San Jose’s southernmost neighborhood and contains the expansive Almaden Quicksilver County Park, Almaden Lake Park, and Calero Reservoir. With hiking, biking, and equestrian trails, Almaden is a nature lover’s paradise amidst the urban landscape. This upscale residential neighborhood with large homes offers some of the best schools in the San Jose Unified School District. Almaden Valley has a variety of retail establishments and restaurants, though the neighborhood is better suited for driving rather than walking to shops, due to the spread out nature of the community.
