California is a big state, and there are big opportunities for adventures in the California State Parks! There are 279 parks, beaches and historical places to play with. Much like the national parks showcase the best of the States, the state parks capture a range of beauty unique to the state.

Why not visit a few and find your favorite?

Want to get started planning your own adventure? One good spot to start is the California Department of Parks and Recreation, right here.

What’s next? Want to explore the national parks of the US with us? Or can I interest you in a perusal of other public lands?

May the road rise up to meet you! Get out there safely, respectfully and mindfully.
