More than just a park, but an adventure for bikers Joggers Walkers runners and family's. The park is interconnected with canyon park plus talbert regional park..together, creating a huge place to enjoy your day..in addition, it offers acces to the water canal water trail that can lead to the city or to the ocean. The trail at canyon are small hilly steep and filled with brush. The talbert park is flat and brushy, but offers ling stretches of scenic views. Plus, talbert park offers a bmx sheep hills bike enthusiast area. They are connected by a thin stretch of park and both locations can be accessed by multiple entry points. The canyon park has to parking lots, upper and lower. Plus bike tie up stations. For the kids, a park with 2 playgrounds. Clean and ample space, many trails to delight everyone. The walk runs and bike paths are easy to moderate level in skill. Neighborhood is super quiet and friendly, so please, be polite and pick after yourself and have fun!

Good morning walk with my dog. The flowers and butterflies 🦋 are starting to become more abundant lately. 2 weeks till spring and warmer weather as the rains have given all the plants a drink. Water is flowing in the canyon! I love ❤️ it

Nestled in the coastal hills of Costa Mesa, here’s a great place to go as an alternative nature spot! Canyon Park was obviously formed from runoff during the rainy season’s, thus carving downhill paths. Then there may be a babbling brook to enjoy. When dried out, the park can be accessed more so across and thru the paths, for a nice little natural recreation area. The park entrance is off of Arbor St. in an upscale neighborhood. There’s a community playground area fronting the street here, where walk-in access is permitted. There’s also a small trailhead at the opposite end of the playground. Parking may be found deeper in the park, further along the entrance road. I had to find a tree, as public restrooms were nowhere to be found! Trails are also accessed thru thru Canyon Drive at Sea Bluff Drive and the more open Talbert Regional Park.

This is a hidden gem with several walking trails and a large pond, among other things. It's close to neighborhoods and easy to get to, but once in the park it feels like you're out in the wilderness. Lots of short, easy dirt walking trails and pretty nature views. These trails connect to a larger network of walking/hiking trails, which makes this a good starting point for longer walks. Dogs are allowed in the park, and the park has a children's playground area and good parking.

This is my favorite park in Huntington Beach/Costa Mesa/Fountain Valley so far. Feels like you're secluded in the woods. It's beautiful and a nice hike as well.
