Marian Bear Memorial Park

Fiery Irish Sparkle

Such a beautiful hidden canyon by 52. A very easy hike for beginners.

Took my dogs for a hike today. We walked/climbed to the very top then back down. It was about 3 miles. I'm a beginner and a little heavy hiker. It was very nice. I didn't see any water like in some of the pictures on here. There is a lot of river rocks. The only down fall is that it's next to the freeway so you have a lot of car noises but other than that it was a great day!

Natural hiking trails, bird watching, nature photography, wildflowers and San Clemente Creek. I like the trails on the west side of the road best. Parking can be closed after heavy rains until repairs are made.

We made our way over to Marian Bear Memorial Park after finding out another hike wasn't dog friendly (this one is!). There are a lot of different trails you can take but several of them end up in dead ends along the creek. It's a pretty flat, easy hike which was great to take our 1 year old puppy on. The trail we went on didn't seem to loop back to the parking lot so we had to turn around and walk back the same trail we came from. In addition, the trails don't seem to be well marked, and there are a lot of forks where it's unclear where they will lead to (some taking you to dead ends or paths impossible to continue on). There are a lot of lizards and rabbits you see along the path and there's a lot of greenery. One thing to note is that there's a lot of poison oak around the park as well as rattlesnakes. Overall, decent hike but nothing too special or scenic about it.
