There's a little lake that has geeses, swans, fishes, & turtles. A lot of folks are picnicking. Some shaded areas. There was a street vendor roaming around. There's slight incline if you plan to do some walking but there is some paved paths where I did see folks walking around. There are poop along the path and also on the grass. This is wonderful park to have in the neighborhood. Wished I lived a bit closer and wished we came prepared with a picnic blanket. Tips: -Small parking lot. -Restroom available. -Basketball courts. -Small playground with 2 swings.

Very open to the community and lots of families and all ages are at this park. It's not a very big park in itself, maybe about 2 miles all around, but there are different trails you can walk to from this entrance. It's not a loud park, even with a lot of people there it seems. Very relaxing and enjoyable. There is limited parking in the parking lot, but you can also park on the curb. Just check out the street parking times. There are city parking times where you're not to park there, unless collecting parking tickets is your thing.

Chino Hills State Park has become one of my favorite places in Southern California, especially…read moreduring wildflower season. After only about a ten-minute hike, I was rewarded with incredible views of green rolling hills stretching toward snow-covered mountains in the distance. The contrast was stunning and felt more like something out of a painting than Orange County. What makes this park special is how quickly you can find yourself surrounded by open space and quiet. You don't need to be an experienced hiker to enjoy it. Even short walks can lead to beautiful scenery, wildlife sightings, and some fantastic photography opportunities. This visit will always be particularly meaningful to me because I brought my Golden Retriever, Christy, with me. Looking back, it ended up being her last adventure before mobility issues began limiting her ability to get out and explore. I'm grateful we were able to share a day like this together while she was still able to enjoy the trails, the fresh air, and the sunshine. For me, Chino Hills State Park isn't just a beautiful place to hike. It's a place tied to one of my favorite memories with a very good dog. I'll always be thankful for that.

I remember coming here years ago for a super bloom. This place is HUGE! Cell service is also very…read morespotty. I met up with some friends here for our monthly hiking group excursion. The drive into the park and throughout can be a bit sketchy at parts because there are times when the road is so narrow, only one car can pass at a time. They have small turnouts, but it got interesting at some places. You also have to watch out for hikers that are parking down the road and walking into the park to avoid the entrance fee. The ranger at the entrance was very friendly and helpful. He handled the exchange for the $10 entrance fee. You can pay online with their QR Code, but I didn't have service, and they also charge you an additional $0.55 service fee for that service. There are restrooms right at the entrance. The facilities are well-kept and stocked, which we all appreciated. We parked near the Rolling M Ranch Campground. Looks like a decent camping area. They don't allow campfires though. There were campsites available. We started out hiking Ranger Ridge Trail, then swung down to Raptor Ridge Trail. Whew! My quads and calves were BURNING! Those are some steep climbs there! These particular trails are also very narrow with a ton of overgrowth. I was glad I wore long-sleeves, but should have worn pants because the brush tore my legs up a bit. There's also a ton of foxtails and they kept getting stuck in the top of our shoes. Ouch! When we swung back down to Telegraph Canyon Trail, that was wide enough for us all to walk together and had nice spots of shade. That trail was well maintained. There are a ton of hiking trails here. I'd be willing to keep coming back to explore more!

When we are in the area, we always stop by and now take both of our kids to this park. They love it! It's very pretty! I would even take my little one's monthly photos here when he was little in the summer. This park will always have a special place in my heart! So many memories. Highly recommend visiting! -a little update- I want change the stars on this post because it's nothing really to do with the park, it's outside so it's expected. But, there are a lot of ants.. not red ants. Just ants. It would be nice if maybe they can spray to keep them out of the playing area. *wasn't always like this, it's just a little fix on their end they can do.

However the park itself was nice with clean bathrooms and big spaces for your kids to run and have fun. The playground was nice and didn't look too work yet. A big plus especially for those with kids like 7+ is that they have a "zip line" where you sit on a small circle seat and hang on as it goes from one side to the other and back. Check it out if you're nearby or visiting around here.

I didn't walk the whole park but it appears pretty large. I played PBall there with my son and the people are NICE. We played with two sets of strangers and they were very welcoming for us out-of-towners. Put paddles on top of the goal and the first on the right is next, they move the paddles to the right as groups go on. Recommended for PBall!

If you leave the parking lot closest to the bathrooms and hike up the hill, that's where this pile of rocks is. Today, we only did the hike, but the rest of the community park looks nice also. And there's a shopping center nearby with plenty of restaurant choices if you're hungry after your hike.
