Confirmed from Yorba Regional Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

It's a big park,very clean! Good to ride a bike,have a pick nick or just go for a walk. The restrooms are clean and there's plenty of parking. You have to pay $5 per car but is well worth it.

🏞️Yorba Regional Park is a fantastic escape in Anaheim! I spent the afternoon here and was really impressed by how well-maintained everything is. I spent most of my time by the ponds, which are perfect for a relaxing day of fishing.

★★★★☆ — Erik , Jan 2026

$5 parking on a weekend, that's pretty good for a nice decent park. There's multiple parking locations. A big lake , you can rent those pedal boats. Ducks, squirrels, geese, and so mitch more wild life.. great place for a picnic, to walk around, relax, ride your bikes,scooters, etc.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
