Into the light Traditional Cache

Established by the City of Oakland in 1917, Dimond Park is named for Hugh Dimond, a Gold Rush newcomer who acquired the land comprising the adjacent district in 1867.Located in the heart of the Dimond District at the upper end of Fruitvale Avenue, the park sits at the base of Dimond Canyon with hiking trails that climb to reach Joaquin Miller Park in the hills above. Reflecting these historic roots, Dimond Park also hosts Lions Pool, opened to the public in 1929, and was the former site of what was believed to be Oakland’s oldest documented oak tree before it was cut down in 2017. Happy geocaching!
