Top Rated Parks to Visit in Mount Baldy

"This large park has great walking paths, picnic tables, two playgrounds, and restrooms nearby. Plenty of room for kiddos to run around and play. The best time of year to visit is the Spring when the Cherry Blossoms are in bloom."

"Vina Vieja Park is my dogs’ favorite park because this is where they run off the leash with other dogs. What’s nice about Vina Vieja Park is that there is a side with a playground for human children and there is a side for the furbabies. Lots of space for them to run around and play."

"Winner by a long shot for the most awesome, multi-generationally-appealing playground equipment in the land goes to La Laguna Playground at Vincent Lugo Park. Slides that look like dragons, things to climb on that look like sea serpents, an open-mawed whale perfect for hide-and-seek—and all brightly colored like a children's book come to life. The creatures were sculpted in the ’60s by local artist Benjamin Dominguez; the playground is in the state’s register of historic places."

"Lacy Park, located at 1485 Virginia Rd, San Marino, CA 91108 includes 35 acres of green grass and mature trees is situated on what were once General Patton's hunting grounds. Two paved paths trace the perimeter of the large central grassy area and provide a fair (but not great) backdrop for photography. Lacy Park's hours of operation are Monday to Friday (6:30 a.m. to Dusk), Weekend Hours (8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. during Daylight Savings Time), and Weekend Hours (8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during Standard Time)."
