The enclosures have signs explaining about the animals and I found out they do tours ! I hopped onto the tail end of the tour - I would like to go back and do the entire tour

I came to Summit Park just to get a walk in while my son and his friends were at Six Flags. When I…read morefirst pulled up, I wasn't even sure there were walking paths! The parking lot is small, and you really can't see what's behind the headquarters building. All I could see were tennis courts. ‍ I'm SO glad I eventually got out of the car and explored because this place is MASSIVE! There are quite a few different directions you can go. The main area, where the playground is located, has a beautiful circular walking path surrounded by lush green grass and trees. Since I was there in the early evening, there were quite a few shady spots along the way. But if you continue walking toward the back...WOW! It opens up into what feels like a vast desert landscape, with several different paths to explore. One of them even has a pretty steep hill! This area also serves as the backdrop to some absolutely beautiful homes. And the best part? It was SO quiet, peaceful and serene. Just the rain, the trees and the sound of nature. I came looking for a place to walk and accidentally found a little hidden gem. Definitely adding Summit Park to my list of places to return to!

There are numerous trails, plus sports courts for both tennis, basketball and pickleball. The space felt safe and has a community center type building that centers it.

Overall, it's a great community space with one note...there are no restrooms located in the park and the closest facilities will be located across the street at the Whole Foods, so use your judgement wisely.

This is now one of the parks in the SCV areas where they have added climbing/hiking steps similar to that of Central Park, so it has become a bit more popular in that regard. I took my 4 and almost 2 year old on a saturday morning 9:30-11:30 and they had a blast. What is amazing is they also added shade sails over the existing 3 play structures and the exercise equipment area, which makes it so much more convenient, accessible and comfortable year round. They also added a softball field with a shaded/covered bench and viewing area, new bathrooms near the field, more covered picnic tables (available to reserve for parties and events), and a new basketball court near the playgrounds featuring 1 regulation height full court and 2 lower hoops for younger kids. They also added 2 big-kid swings in a shaded area near the big kid play structure which is awesome, as before there were just two toddler swings (which are now also significantly shaded btw). Sun exposure can still be tough depending on time of day, as when we were leaving the smallest 3 slides were heating up quite a bit for my little ones comfort, but the kids had a blast nonetheless. My only knock, is that with all these great improvements and renovations, I wish they would have improved and upgraded the existing bathrooms near the playgrounds too. Not that there is anything particularly wrong with them, but they could use some basically upgrades for the sink, dividers between urinals, and just overall modernization and environmental efficiency similar to the new bathrooms by the softball field and at some of the other renovated parks. Highly recommend this park. It is definitely one of my go-tos when I need to get the boys out of the house. It is a great place for kids to roam, explore, and play,

Park - #5/50 My goal…read morefor now til the end of the year is to review 50 parks. We frequent new parks and I hate when I can't find any updated photos for them so that's how I started my instagram @thatabcsquad to share. And now I'd like to contribute to Yelp as well. I've had my eyes on this park for a while now but whenever I would put it into Google Maps, it would say it's under construction so I didn't wanna haul three kids to a park that 'may' be closed (we live 40 mins away) But a friend passed by and saw it was open so we had to go check it out! We loved every second of it!! - huge fully shaded playground!! Three sections, bigger, middle and smaller. - BIG slides for those who love them! - lots of climbing and crawling areas - plenty of grassy space - baseball fields - shaded picnic tables - clean bathrooms - water fountains - parking lot close by to playground If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend this park!! We were told there's also a little nature trail too! We gotta check that out next time.

When you're ending the year 2025 with a hiking adventure. Let's begin this banger review…read more Whitney Canyon Park is a 442-acre park known for its diverse trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding, featuring oak woodlands, chaparral, and riparian areas with seasonal waterfalls. It is located next to the freeway in Santa Clarita. I have been eyeing this trail/park for months and I am glad I crossed this on my All trails hiking list. I came on a late Monday morning and it was bloody windy (~45 mph) with a cool temp of 64 degrees. This park has multiple trials including Elsmere Trail. WCP has a wide track trail through a canyon that was known for oil drilling and ranching some of its remnants are still visible. Its trail has little to no tree shade but the trailhead was kept clear. I have seen some hikers (family and kids) and bikers along the way; most are friendly and nice. Parking lot is huge with no shades. Trash bins are available. Overall, it's a nice easy park to go hiking. I recommend it.

A friend took me to Whitney Canyon Waterfall today, and wow what an adventure. The hike is…read moremoderate, about 3.5 miles, and parking is free. Reaching the waterfall is not for the faint of heart. You climb uphill, descend back down, reach a small waterfall, and then go through it to finally arrive at Whitney Waterfall. It's a bit sketchy, definitely thrilling, and absolutely worth it but only if you're prepared. Hiking shoes are a must. This trail is not recommended for kids or beginner hikers due to steep and slippery sections. It was 48 degrees and freezing cold today, so check the weather before you go and layer up. Also, there are no restrooms, so plan ahead. If you're looking for a raw, adventurous hike with a rewarding waterfall at the end, this one delivers.

I've never seen what it looked like before so I can't compare the two but overall this park is cute! Unfortunately it didn't really intrigue my 2.5 year old. The smaller playground was a little too small and the bigger playground was too much for him. He had fun on the scavenger hunt rock climb slide area though! And did love running up and down the grassy hill! Restrooms seemed to still be a work in progress but was open and clean. You can definitely smell paint still. And they were also still working on the room next to the restrooms. Parking was small so we did not find a spot and had to park at the end of the road and walk up. Lots of residential parking through but just a little walk up. Love that they have benches around and also picnic tables under an (open) gazebo. Since we're not from the area, it wouldn't be a park I would frequent, but definitely glad we got to check it off our list!

There are so many activities beyond the play structures, making it enjoyable for all ages. As a parent with kids ages 3, 6, 11, and 13, it was refreshing to find something for each of them to enjoy: * My 11-year-old had plenty of space on the open grass area to play soccer. * My 13-year-old loved being able to practice basketball on the court. * My younger two were thrilled with the updated play structures and also had fun running around playing kickball. We ended our visit with snacks at the picnic tables, which were clean and conveniently placed near the play areas. The combination of shaded play zones, open fields, sports courts, and picnic spaces makes this park an excellent spot for families with kids of all ages. Definitely a five-star experience!

Parking - One thing I love about this place, parking was EASY. 3ish lots so it was plentiful.
