The North Coyote Valley Conservation Area is a protected area in Santa Clara County, California, that acts as a critical wildlife and water link between the Santa Cruz Mountains and the Diablo Range. It features a biodiversity hot spot with unique species and rare habitats, and it plays a vital role in flood protection for downstream residents. The Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority, along with partners like the Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST) and the City of San José, has been instrumental in acquiring and protecting lands within the area to connect habitats, restore natural floodplains, and improve water quality.
