• History of the Park

Marian Bear Memorial Park is in San Clemente Canyon, stretching from Interstate 5 to Interstate 805. The park provides a natural setting amid a bustling urban area. The 467 acres of dedicated natural parkland on the south side include finger canyons and mesas with a rich and diverse history.

The public can enjoy over three miles of mostly flat trails along the canyon's length. More challenging hiking is available on the trails in several finger canyons leading up to the mesa tops. Biking is permitted on the maintenance roads in the canyon; no equestrian use is permitted. Major entries to the park are off Genesee Avenue and Regents Road, where parking and picnic areas with restroom facilities are available.

A Park Ranger assigned to the park area provides interpretive programs, public assistance, guidance, enforcement, and protection. Volunteers are always welcome to help with the park's maintenance and operation.
