Mount Wilson Trail Park

Park

👍👍 This is an awesome trail for medium to high skill hikers. However, I brought my wife and ten year old son who are not hikers. They walked 3 miles up and back with no issues. It has beautiful views and no meters to park. The longest trail is 8.6 miles. Our dog was excited. Got to keep him on a leash...

Millard Falls

Park

👍👍 Unexpected fun find. Don't forget your adventure parking pass, you'll need it. It's pet friendly. If you park towards the top of the mountain the trailhead will be apx 100 yards away. Keep an eye out for the Millard Falls sign and follow. Eventually you'll arrive at the Millard campground (great spo...

The Arboretum

Park

👍👍 Luckily I live 10 minutes from this beautiful garden and walk here daily. I've been here many hundreds of times but it never ceases to amaze. It's not just the beautiful gardens, the peacocks, the super friendly staff it's the overall sense of peace and Oneness with nature that is so Pleasant to loo...

Desert Garden

Botanical garden

👍👍 This garden looks other worldly. It was easily my favorite garden at Huntington. People that work on film sets might find it blasé as my companion, in response to my amazement, was like “oh yeah you don’t work on sets”. Me mockingly “Ooooo I’m so cool, I worked on sci-fi movies”. Which is cool, but...

Cherry Canyon MTB Trail Start Point-Gate

Park

👍👍 This was a beautiful place to hike however the trails were very confusing to navigate. This park has many trails and you can get easily lost. We did the Forest Hill Road and Cherry Canyon Motorway trails, and we went in a loop. So it was fun, short, and quite an adventure.

Eaton Canyon Trail Head

Park

👍👍 It was my first visit to Eaton Canyon last Sunday and it did not disappoint. Recent rain has the creek rushing with water. Being from Seattle (now living in Pasadena) I miss rain and flowing water. We actually went to the canyon with our camping chairs to sit by the creek and enjoy the atmosphere....

Farnsworth Park Amphitheater

Amphitheater

👍 Great park and one of the greatest views of Pasadena, especially at n8ght driving down Lake Ave. This park is always pretty clean with nice tennis courts. The event I went to was outside. However, I have also attended inside their hall, and it also has a cozy amphitheater area, which I have attend...

Memorial Park

Park

👍👍 Fun park with a wide open geen space. A shaded playground and some picnic tables make it the perfect place for a birthday party or a Sunday outing. Saturday morning are busy due to the weekly farmers market. My kids love searching for the little "elf" men. How many can you find?

Lower Arroyo Park

Park

👍 Came here on a Sunday morning as wanted to walk the trail to the Rose Bowl. Very narrow driveway to a small parking lot, but there was plenty of parking. Majority of people were heading to the archery area and I was the only one heading to the trails. It wasn't clear which side of the stream to w...

Emerald Isle Park

Park

👍 This is a nice out of the way park. It’s a neighborhood park with tennis courts, play structures, open space and trees. It’s out of the way and it’s probably pretty much used by the neighborhood but it’s still nice.

Park

👍👍 Monday to Friday free, but Saturday and Sunday five dollars

South Pasadena Nature Park

Park

👍👍 A pocketful of miracle! Blink and you'll miss this hidden pocket of magic and wilderness. And if you don't mind sharing a cosmically-connected stone circle with a bunch of furry little critters, this sliver of the Arroyo Seco is definitely not to be missed!

4.70 (58 reviews) (~9.49 km from centre)

Cherry Canyon Park

Park

👍 Nice canyon area west of Pasadena. Trails not crowded but exposed. Take plenty of water and sunblock. Not a lot of climbing but great view of the los Angeles basin, Pasadena, and the mountain ranges around it. Hot in the summer, so start early and avoid the afternoon heat.
