The park overlooks the Petaluma River and San Pablo Bay from the east-facing slopes of 1,558
foot Mount Burdell. The name "Olompali" comes from the Miwok language and may be translated
as "southern village" or "southern people." The Coast Miwok inhabited at least one site within
the area of the present-day park continuously from as early as 6,000 BC, until the early
1850's. The entrance is accessible only to southbound traffic from Highway 101.
