Yorba Regional Park is technically in Anaheim, but it runs along Yorba Linda's southern edge and most locals treat it as their own. Operated by OC Parks and open since 1976, it stretches for about a mile along the Santa Ana River, with four connected lakes at its center.
What to do
- Walk or ride the paths. Paved paths loop the lakes and connect directly to the Santa Ana River Trail, which you can follow all the way to the coast.
- Rent a bike or paddle boat. A rental concession inside the park offers bikes, surreys and pedal boats. Rentals stop before sunset.
- Fish the lakes. Fishing is allowed; anyone 16 or older needs a California fishing license.
- Picnic. The park has roughly 400 picnic tables and 200 barbecues, plus reservable shelters for large groups.
- Play. Playgrounds, volleyball courts, horseshoe pits and softball fields are spread along the park.
Tips
- Weekends and holidays fill up with parties. Arrive before 10 am for a table near the water.
- Parking is paid at the entrance, so bring a card or small bills.
- Shelters for birthday parties and reunions are reserved through OC Parks, often weeks ahead.
