The Stoney Creek Trail starts at the corner of Vista Monte Drive and Amberwood Way in San Ramon and heads toward the San Ramon/Dublin border. The trail connects with Dublin's Alamo Creek trail and then heads north following the creek through a rolling open space field bordered with many large oak trees that are home to Turkey, Deer, and other bird species. The trail then follows Beaver Creek Court, crosses the creek over a bridge, and follows Stoney Creek Drive along the bank of the creek. The trail ends at the intersection of Old Ranch Road and Stoney Creek Drive. From here hikers can continue straight to the Peaceful Valley Trail or Bent Creek Trail or can head back to the starting location using the Bent Creek or Stoney Creek Trails.
