Edna Park — Attraction in Santa Ana

Facilities are available, and from the most part, are clean. Jungle gym available, large grass areas, and picnic table are open to the public. Clean sand clean grass clean 95% of the time.

Small park but serves for a great start for a run walk or...

The wildlife is amazing, especial the Turkey Vultures and Red Tail Hawks!!! Highly recommended for biking. Just be aware that this had become a popular trail and watch out...
