Sunset Ridge Park is easily one of the nicest parks in the High Desert! It's always so clean and…read morewell-maintained, which I really appreciate. They recently added one of those cool library vending machines, and I love that touch--it makes the park feel even more welcoming and community-focused. The playground is great, the baseball fields are well-kept, and it's the perfect place to walk, relax, or hang out with family. It's definitely my favorite park in the area. If I had one suggestion, it would be to add a trash can and hand dryers inside the restroom. Other than that, I just hope people continue to take care of it--it's such a beautiful space and it deserves to stay that way!

There are picnic tables and bbqs throughout the park, a track lines the perimeter and there's also a vending machine library. I really enjoy walking my dog there. With the new builds in the area the park has gotten super busy, but still a great place to visit.

This path takes you to lower campus of VVC in one direction towards Bear Valley Road and you will be facing the new Aldi shopping center at the end of the trail. On the Victorville side expect to see more shaded areas due to the homes of SVL right next to the path. It is paved and divided path that bikes and pedestrians to enjoy. There are no restrooms or anything on this path. At the end of the path there are bike pumps/tools/air if you need it. This is where most people park entering through Fish Hatchery Road and parking unloading their bikes or beginning there walk/run. Parking is limited in this area, but if it gets busy people park in the dirt. Also note there are poop bags if you bring your furry one. Be sure to grab a couple before you start your run/walk. Nobody wants to see a pile of poop or step on it. Pick up after your pet. What most people don't know is this path continues in Apple Valley however you must go east on Bear Valley over the bridge then cross the street to the Jess Ranch shopping center. The path again begins towards the Cinemark side of the shopping center. This path takes you again along the Mojave Riverbed behind the Jess Ranch planned community. On the AV side there are benches ever so often if you need to take a breather. It would be great if they could connect it somehow with some pedestrian bridge or something over Bear Valley, but who knows if that will ever happen lol. As others have mentioned if you head back along the path towards Apple Valley and Yucca Loma bridge the path splits and one takes you under the bridge into Mojave Narrows. It is great ride into Mojave Narrows in a brisk morning. I wouldn't do a walk alone at sunset or night as Mojave Narrows and the path itself is very heavy with vegetation and who knows who is lurking in there. While biking at night I see mom's pushing their stroller on there self phone not aware of their surroundings and always makes me a little anxious thinking someone could harm them, so I always keep an eye out when I'm on the path The path ends in Mojave Narrows and makes a u-turn and leads you back in the other direction. It the morning you see lots of fisherman and families out by the water. Couple things to note: The path is long, if you bring your kids, bike, etc be prepared with water and be prepared to carry your young kid if they say they are tired. lol. Don't go biking, walking or whatever alone where you could put yourself in danger. If you go during the day or when weather is warm there are a lot of tiny bugs. They will get in your face, mouth, etc if you are biking. Where some sunglasses and a mouth covering or you will get a mouthful of them in your face. It is extremely hot in the summer during the day. So again bring water and dress for the weather.

Ugly walk. View of drainage area and people's back yards. Homeless camps and creeps along the way.read more

I've visited this park for years and it continues to improve. It's such a gem to have in the area…read more There's space for children to play, and open space for throwing frisbees, or having a picnic, or reading a book. Plenty of space to walk your dog. There's at least two lakes that I've seen and numerous hiking trails several of which I've enjoyed. Some people like to fish, I'm not sure which type of fish are in the waters. There's also horse trails and bike trails. Most of the trails are accessible whether you have a motorized scooter, cane, or wheelchair, you can enjoy the nature trails. There's a variety of different wildlife and birds. A great place to bird watch. There's cows nearby. I love cows! There's clean restrooms, but they never have soap. There's overnight camping available and space to keep horses, not sure if it's for overnight horse lodging. I'm grateful for the Regional Park card they offer to veterans. That's a huge benefit and I appreciate it. I recently discovered the Celeste De Blasis Memorial Garden which was so beautiful it made me emotional. It's nice to see things like that in this area. This is a beautiful park and one of my favorite parks to visit. It's open daily from 7:30 am to 7pm.

There is a fee per day/per car ($15 as of this writing), so plan accordingly. While I didn't camp, I did see some stunning campsites right next to the water and in beautiful condition. Lots of great hiking spots, lots of folks fishing and overall a wonderful atmosphere. There's even a Frisbee golf course. Very clean and well-maintained. Parking is included in the entrance fee. Always check the website https://parks.sbcounty.gov/park/mojave-narrows-regional-park/ for current regulations and fees. Enjoy!

The hike down is beautiful with wide desert views. Just remember: going back up is a workout. Bring plenty of water and be ready for sun. The hot springs themselves are awesome--several warm pools and the cold creek right next to them. It can get busy, but still really relaxing. Overall, a great adventure spot if you're up for a tougher hike. Would definitely go again.

Victorville should be embarrassed and ashamed calling this a park nevertheless a family park…read more Please invest in outdoor family recreation. I moved to Victorville a few months ago and this is the third small park I run into, within a 30 mile radius. All this people running for office need to realize Victorville is reach in big families and culture, we need better family outings and this calls for nice bigger parks and recreations. Bigger children playgrounds and maybe a water park, barbecue areas, and. Fountains or small waterfalls. Come on officials we have the land the people are settling here with all that new construction going on. Now you just need to control speeders on the roads by issuing more citations and using all those fines to invest in our emotional health, by building parks where families can get their kids off the couch with a high spatula and get them outdoors!!!!!!

GET there bright and early, especially right after they stock! business hours are 7am-4pm saturdays and sundays only. there will be a line in the morning. get there early to claim your spot. the summertime doesn't get overpopulated (temperatures easily get over 100 degrees), but there will be a good amount of people since it is a family friendly business. oh, also, cost of entry is $30 per adult. children do get a discount, but unsure of that cost. on those hot days, bring a canopy or some cover. it'll help with the heat because you will be in the sun. don't get me wrong. there are some good fishing spots in the shade by the trees. in case you're unfortunate in getting there early, you won't be able to get this spot until later in the morning. the bites are really good after stock days. they also have an angler's pond which is good for the kiddos! you do pay per fish captured, so keep that in mind. overall, i've had more successful fishing here more than the times i've been skunked. my only gripe is that the line could move along a little faster. the front window staff should have someone taking cash payments while the other person could take card payments. one time it took me 30-45 minutes to get in and 5-10 minutes to get to my spot. another 5-10 minutes to get setup and line in the water. by that time, it'll be almost an hour in before i start fishing. i'm rating this place 4 out of 5 stars!
