Great park! With lots of trails for Biking, Hiking, you may choose to see a different view with every visit. From mountains to meadows, hills and valleys, you can find a new path each time. There is a campground, Rolling M in Chino Hills (via Bane Canyon entry/exit). You can also visit from Corona near the Green River Golf Club, and Yorba Linda at Chino Hills visitor's center, a great place to find out info and bring the kids. Garden paths on this side provide a quiet place to let them roam.

We visited Chino Hills State Park in April. Nature looks really beautiful. I suggest nature and trail lover to visit this place in spring season.We park car at street reaching at park. If you don't want to walk lot, go with car up hill and at entrance gate pay $10 for parking. We walked as my family likes trail and walking. The day visited was partially cloudy and pleasant. If you are visiting Chino Hills State Park, you also can visit Baps Shree Swaminarayan temple, which is really beautiful and closer to park. Both together is perfect a day trip! We enjoyed nature.

1st time at this park. Very beautiful this time of year. Bet during summer it's brutal and ugly 😔 Wish it would stay like this all year round Cons, don't appreciate the fact I saw signs that said no dogs allowed on the trail. Electric and motorized bikes, I get it but can't go hiking or running with your pup pal... forget that

Which trail has the best view to see the flowers?

Mod Behaviour | Aug 20, 2019
James Melton | Aug 20, 2019

Enter off of Rimcrest street. You will reach a three pronged trail head. Choose any of the three and you can't go wrong. I recommend going left up the hill to glider point, the view is spectacular.

I'm taking my grandkids this weekend to see the blooms. Is there any trail we should take that is Blooming the best?

Dee Turner | Aug 20, 2019
James Melton | Aug 20, 2019

Enter off of Rimcrest street and enter the park from there. You will have three options. You can go left up to glider point you could head to the right which is another steep climb, or you can go right up the middle which is a single track Trail. All three of these options are fantastic however if your grandkids are really young there is a very steep climb if you go to the left or the right.

Where are the entrances located. I enter off 71 fwy. At Souel Canyon

Lionel Johnson | Aug 20, 2018
Jonathan Filek | Aug 20, 2018

Coming from 71 South freeway > exit central/soquel canyon and turn right > turn left on Elinvar > the road will eventually wind to the left, the entrance will be almost immediately on the right hand side (often times you will see many cars parked at this left hand turn because people like to hike inside) > drive through the gate and travel down the long road and you will eventually come to a state park booth where you can pay to get in with you car [I believe it's lime $5].
