Want to take in panoramic views of soaring red rock cliffs, vistas of Irvine Lake, and—on clear days—a peek at Catalina Island? Then take advantage of Black Star Canyon Wilderness Park, where miles of varied trails offer pleasant strolls for beginning hikers and families, and also challenging experiences for seasoned trail users.
Black Star Canyon and the adjacent Baker Canyon are historical hot spots, with tales and stories harkening to the region’s ranching days, its once-numerous population of California grizzly bears, and the region’s first residents—the Gabrieleño-Tongva peoples.
