Chino Wetlands Preserve

Really lovely park! Echoing other reviewers mentions of gravel, the trails here are overwhelmingly gravely which I can imagine would be difficult to maneuver a wheelchair or stroller in. There were a few moments where I had to pick up my dog to give his paws a break from the rocks too, so maybe not a great dog walking park for those sensitive pawed pups! The ponds are the standout here, you can see all kinds of beauties in the water! I managed to see Neotropic Cormorants, a Great Egret, Gallinule, Ruddy ducks, mallards, and coots! Also, scan the tree-lines for Warblers and woodpeckers! I also has a run in with a Greater Roadrunner which was a pleasant surprise. I really recommend coming here for a nice spot of walking and duck watching!

Love how there's so many educational pieces around explaining how the ecosystem contributes to the area and the water cycle. There's a few scattered around so its nice to be able to walk around and find sculptures too. The paths are mainly gravel so keep that in mind for people in wheel chairs or pets please. There's so many bugs and insects, but they are harmless! Lots just doing their thing and won't bother you unless you provoke them pretty persistently. Great spot to find caterpillars and moths as well as smaller wildlife critters like squirrels, bobcats, coyotes, and different birds around. Bring binoculars if you have some. Most disappointing thing is that there are only 4 chargepoint chargers and seems like people get dropped off and leave there cars here all day from what I'm assuming after coming here and finding the consistently same cars here all day. It would be nice to have more installed and some solar panels to provide shade and energy for them to help. I got here at 11am and all the cars have been here at least 4 hours with one here for 5 hours. As I was leaving after being here over 30 minutes, the tesla took the other cars spot, 1 person, 2 cars 🙄🤦🏽‍♂️

Quick walk around. There’s two small bridges to cross. Lots of ponds with ducks, fishes, and turtles. Can see many dragonfly’s as well. Most of the trails are rocks. Kids can enjoy this place as well.

A hidden jewel of water hidden in the seemingly dry Southern California industrial area. Went there for a short stroll and saw these beautiful birds.

Artificial wetland area created with reclaimed water. Overall nice, lots of bare spots, don't bring nice shoes. Ducks, lizards, and other wildlife seem to make this their home. Nice place to be if you have someone special to enjoy it with.
