Very large park nestled within west Torrance neighborhood with lots of dirt hiking trails around the perimeter. There's lots of elevation. From the top, you can see multiple little league fields and the reservoir which is currently filled with water and lots of ducks/geese. In the summer, this usually dries up. There is a basketball court, public bathrooms, and a playground. Picnic area has a water fill station which is nice since the rest of the park is reclaimed water and not safe to drink. Good place for walking dogs and even has an unofficial dog park. Lots of kids mountain bike on the trails during the daytime. Unfortunately, is very dark during the nighttime and often has coyotes read more

Such a mellow big park. The baseball fields are fun to visit in season for a snack at the snack stand. There are basketball courts and a nature trail. You can barbecue over charcoal briquettes in the big picnic area. Worth the visit and a great place to walk a dog! read more

Good trails, family-friendly, urban escape. When I arrived, I felt like I had departed from Los Angeles. It's tranquil and reminiscent of a simpler era. read more

Toddler playground is closed with fence around it. Big kid playground is unsafe as it's falling apart with metal starting to rust. read more

Hidden away in a residential area, featuring restored wetlands, baseball fields, shaded picnic area, playground and grassy field - and a loop trail around the edge of the basin. The trail is a relaxing walk. Depending on time of year, you may be able to spot wildflowers, birds, rabbits, etc. There's not much in the way of shade - it's almost all scrub - but it has a couple of scenic viewpoints, and part of it runs close to the wetlands. The pond usually has water in it, and often has ducks, geese, and other waterfowl. read more

This was once a nice little escape in the middle of a West Torrance residential neighborhood. A homeless man has set up camp in the picnic area for the past two years. His family lives in the neighborhood but wants nothing to do with him. They allow him to store his carts full of junk each time he is removed from the park. Unfortunately, he always returns a day or two later. He scrounges through trash cans in the neighborhood before sunrise each morning. His hoard of junk now takes up three picnic tables. His camp is right next to one of the Little League fields. Although cities are now allowed to remove homeless encampments, Torrance seems to look the other way regarding Entradero Park. read more

The view is tranquil and the paths natural. Lots of places to stop and enjoy. It's large and a great place to walk. Careful of the wildlife though. It is a coyote haven. Weekends are crowed with the baseball fields in use but mid week mornings are a bit of peace and quiet read more

This place is secluded within a local residential neighborhood but is thoughtful enough to have it's own parking lot, to not interfere with the residents and creating parking issues or noise pollution nor any congestion or inconveniences that public venues often do to quaint neighborhoods. It's an "okay" park and has a nice big tree in the fields where the children's play area is, but that play area playground play set is smack in the middle of the field where if it's sunny and hot, is not shaded at all, so logistically isn't really ideal for babies, toddlers and kids to play for any long duration or if it's blistering hot and the equipment absorbs that heat and then some. They have a nice track to run around as well as a reservoir type looking man-made lake area (which at the time I went was drained or dry) and a picnic looking area as well as a basketball court. Overall, it's "okay" but not the South Bay's best or one of the top parks when evaluating it's overall aesthetics, functionality and offerings. It has niche appeal that's unique in many ways that can bring this to a * * * * higher rating depending on your specific needs and wants you're looking for. read more

This place is amazing! Great for kids that are three and like slides. There is an enormous slide. Bigger than the normal slides that you'd see at other parks. There is a pond that is beautiful at sunrise and sunset. I bet you should go there. read more

Great park when the pond is full. My son loves seeing the ducks and geese. The bathroom was out of soap and the playground equipment definitely needs some TLC or a new one entirely. The blue material on the steps are cracking. Would come here again for a walk but not for play equipment. So much potential if it was given more attention. read more

This park is so hidden, had it not been for Google maps I would have never known about it. The park has dirt trails (perfect for dogs), baseball fields, playground equipment, and a pond for wildlife. It's almost like a nature preserve with kiddie equipment. My son and his friend had a great time exploring and looking at wildlife. My best friend and I were shocked that this park even existed. We never knew about this park despite actively searching for new parks in the area for 5 years! This park is worth checking out! read more

Well kept park in my neighborhood. Always fun to walk, see what's going on at the pond (ie, water level, birds) and talk to Jeff the park ranger. Available clean rest rooms and shaded picnic area are pluses. Nice break during quarantine periods. But, don't tell too many people. read more

Entradero Park - Parks Near Me - Torrance, California

Just had my son's 2nd birthday party here and it is great! Part of the park has about 10 picnic tables and a couple BBQs. You cant reserve in advance, but we went at 8am the day of the party to start setup, and no one else was there on a Saturday. We set up a 10x10 tent some balloons and decorations. We had about 25-30 pple and there are bug trees for shade. It was relaxing, fun, and we would definitely have another party there. You cant bring any tables there, but the picnic tables are sturdy cement, so they work great! read more

I only come here during the day . I appreciate the hills to walk up and the grass spaces that I'm able to run out dogs on when knowone is at the park . The grass could be trimmed a little more often . The layout with the pond and natural surroundings are niche thought . I really have a hard time with not seeing this park ever patrolled by anyone . Also I only come during the day because of the about of homeless people I've seen in the lark . Also there are clearly drug addicts and other homeless people that know to come here and park and sleep in their cars . It's so noticeable because you see them passed out in their cars . Knowone has ever bothered us thought , so that's good . read more

This is a great neighborhood park that I have been going to for over 25 years now. It's has a large grass field and a basketball court and picnic benches. There is also dirt hills for running or walking and baseball diamonds ( home of west Torrance little league). This park deserves a 5 star rating but they lose a star for a few reasons. 1) the swamp area next to the baseball fields use to be way more vegetated. There use to be a few trees and a lot more swamp and marsh to it. It looked like Jurassic park but the city cleaned that up and ruined it. That use to be a childhood favorite to go play in that area. 2) about 20 years ago a group of guys would play roller hockey on the basketball court every Sunday. These hockey games were going on for years and There use to be a lot of players and pretty organized and I use to look forward to those Sundays but the city banned roller hockey and we had to find a new place to play. It was never the same after that. 3) finally the playground area is just not as good as it once was. Back in the day everything was metal and iron and the main slide was like 3 stories high. It was great! They even use to have a merry-go-round that was lopsided and made of pure steel and iron. It was rusted to all hell and one cut and you needed a tetanus shot stat but it was a fun piece of equipment. Today the playground is all plastic, modern and safe...which isn't nearly as fun. Overall this is a great park that brings back great memories every time I go to it. I look forward to going to it for many more years to come. read more

I took my daughter here for a play date during winter break. It is nestled in a neighborhood and I had no idea it existed (living in the south bay for over 25 years now). It has a large pond with ducks, walking/biking trail, kids park and it looks like a new baseball field complete with batting cages. Great big park to spend the day with the kids. read more

Like this park a lot. But a few months ago, as I was going around the trail, I saw a snake sashing across the path behind the little league baseball field, it's probably not poisonous, but I was wise enough not to be face to face with him or her. After standing there petrified for a good minute with my hairs stand on end, I decided to let the snake have the park. read more

This park is huge, and not very well known. It has at least four baseball fields and pond with ducks. A large walking trail and basket ball court. They have a picnic area that is really shaded and a play area for kiddo's. Oh and also a dog agility training sets up here now and then. The parking lot is small but I've never had a problem. One of my fav parks. Dog friendly too read more

Entradero Park - The water is surprising clean and visited by ducks and other species. - Parks Near Me - Torrance, California

Does anyone know why its little fenced in dog area isn't truly fenced in? Makes it not secure so I can't play ball w/ my dog, which she craves. Otherwise, it's a great park. read more

LOVE this park, pretty huge. There's a playground, basketball court, picnic area, restrooms, and even two or three baseball fields. The best part of this park to me is the area that surrounds the baseball fields, the hilly area, very cool to walk around. read more

Our favorite local park. Great for mini hikes with the dogs! Has a beautiful pond in the middle that was recently added, where geese, ducks and egrets come to swim. They are still working on some renovations that are turning out really nicely. Baseball fields, green grass field for the kids and dogs to run and play. A barbeque area with seating at the entrance. There is a big kid and little kid play equipment area and swings as well. I like that it is in the middle of a suburban neighborhood and not on a busy street so you can feel safe about your kids and dogs running around. read more

I love the running path that circles around the park, I hope they don't ruin it during construction.

The two star review doesn't reflect the beautiful fields for baseball , but it certainly reflects the total lack of city maintenance on the run off, the security fences rotting along the run off hills and the fact that kids are smoking, drinking , and actually walked by two teens shooting BBGuns at some cans near the large dirt hills by the border fences at park. If west Torrance expects to add value to this area near Redondo, Hermosa they better get the scrubs outta of the area. In Manhattan beach, parents don't tolerate this, why does park / city slack on safety?? read more

Truly hidden - the entrances are on Towers and Halison between houses; the entire park hides behind houses all around. Amazing community resource. read more
