A great drive to see easily view the entire Silicon valley. It is a favorite low key drive for an afternoon. At the top of Mt Hamilton, the Lick Observatory offers interesting tours, light education and cute bookstore. Weekends the road, which is very windy can get heavy traffic and be slowed down by bikers who love this day aggressive bike ride

Built in the late 1800s on top of Mount Hamilton, this was the largest telescope in North America at the time. It's a windy 19-mile drive (takes about 45 minutes), but the history, and views are worth it. You can see the entire Bay Area, Monterey Bay, and on clear days, you can see all the way to Yosemite National Park to the East. They do tours several times each day. There is a small gift shop on site, and they have tables for picnicking.

Tallest peak in the San Francisco Bay area. Mount Hamilton is a mountain in California's Diablo Range, in Santa Clara County, California. Mount Hamilton, at 4,265 feet (1,300 m) is a mountain overlooking Santa Clara Valley and is the site of Lick Observatory, the first permanently occupied mountain-top observatory. The asteroid 452 Hamiltonia, discovered in 1899, is named after the mountain. Golden eagle nesting sites are found on the slopes of Mount Hamilton. On clear days, the Santa Cruz Mountains, Monterey Bay, the Monterey Peninsula, and even Yosemite National Park are visible from the summit of the mountain
