Wheelchair and stroller accessible places in Berkeley (6)
Miles of flat path right on the water at the Berkeley Marina, and the wind that makes it chilly is exactly what makes it the kite spot. Good when you need somewhere everyone can just move.
Design Quest for building and testing things, an Animal Discovery Room, and one of the best views of the bay from the terrace. Open Wednesday to Sunday; $20 covers everyone from three upwards.
Cows, goats and chickens at the end of a short walk from the Canon Drive car park, and it costs nothing. Bring celery or lettuce - the farm asks people not to feed the animals anything else.
A scaled-down steam train that loops along the ridge in Tilden, $4 a ride or five for $16. Weekends and holidays year round, 11 to 6, closing at nightfall in winter.
A restored Herschell-Spillman carousel with hand-carved animals, $4 a ride or $22 for a book of seven. There is a snack stand, a restroom and parking right there, which makes it an easy stop rather than an expedition.
Fresh, high-quality food on a spacious patio with room for strollers, though service is slow.
