This is a wonderful place to experience a bit of history. I can't help but to get a chill down my spine thinking that so many people came from a world away only to die in a place that Only exists as a memory. A somber memorial to the pioneers who tried to tame the land and now have become one with it. Come to this place and set beneath the weeping willow and imagine the lives that these people must have lived a great experience for anybody of all ages.
The East Bay Regional Park District have done an outstanding job restoring this site.
I've been coming here since 1975, the first time was with my dad. I was 5 years old and the area was not under the EBRP jurisdiction at that time.nMy friends and I hiked there after hearing the story of the white wItch and old abandoned mines. We were about 5-7 years old. When I returned home from our adventurous excursion, my mom was frantic and upset with me.ud83dude29ud83dude16nWe would still sneak out to Black Diamond, especially if it was foggy.nBeautiful area full of rich history and fun memories for me.
Nice hike for family with young children. The hill gets more steep as you get closer. My 3 year old got to the top with nearly no problems.
Cool old cemetery. It is absolutely terrible that it was vandalized quite some time ago. The information sign at the cemetery entrance mentioned this. Most graves are from the 1880's, when this area was an active coal mining town.
