The 150 foot radio telescope (called The Dish) is a famous sight on the mid-peninsula in the San Francisco Bay Area ; built in the 1960's and now maintained by SRI, it sits on land near Highway 280 and is visible for miles. The paved trails, popular with hikers and walkers are busy on a January weekend - perfect weather for hiking - mid 50's; The very hilly 3.5 mile loop is a good workout.

You can actually see the dish on the satellite version of the map.
