Pleasant Hill has a nearby BART station and extensive County Connection bus lines to serve both residents and commuters. Pleasant Hill is especially proud to be the home of Diablo Valley College, one of the leading state community colleges, and John F. Kennedy University. And only a few steps from busy city streets in Pleasant Hill is an entirely different world, a network of beautiful regional trails for jogging, hiking, bicycling, skating and horseback riding with many of these trails passing through the heart of the city. These trails allow the user a chance to enjoy a leisurely, rural pace while experiencing beautiful trails in fresh air and landscaped surroundings with some trails providing sweeping vistas of the nearby hills and Mt. Diablo.
