Chaparral Park — Attraction in Irvine

Great park for afternoon or evening hike or even a jog, and taking your dog out for some playtime... lot of folks drive here to go up the stairs to the Suicide Hill which provides awesome views of the city of Irvine and Orange County, and even as far West as the Pacific Ocean and on a clear day, even views of downtown Los Angeles. The park has couple of play areas for the kids and remains a favorite spot for school children from Bonita Canyon Elementary. Just a nice park to hangout! There are no restrooms here though...closest public restrooms are at Turtle Rock Community Park which is three...

Perfect fun neighborhood park in Turtle Rock... play area for both younger and older kids, ample shade, dense trees, posts for exercising, picturesque pathway, benches for picnics or just relaxing, and finely manicured lawns. There’s a small soccer field adjacent to the Sierra Bonita Elementary school. The best time to visit is right before sunset when the weather is just right, and the beautiful golden rays of the sun make this entire park...

Good spot to take the RC Cars out, Especially Crawlers. The gatekeeper is where all the fun starts.

This is maybe a mini Moab, rock climbs and slabs on the entire ascend. Visitors keep it clean and there's no trash - please do help keep it this way!

Hiking part is fun, just short. If you haven't left the couch in months, it's gonna be a little bit of a workout but it's not too painful. Dogs friendly...
