This is a wonderful place; However, it is almost always closed. It has been closed since the Ranch2 fire. There has been no fire around the park for quite a long time. Route 39 has also been open for quite a long time. This park is still closed as of today. Does anyone know why?

Good hike with a serene sound of water. Trail is fine for kids and not so active individuals. Enjoy the view!

Great walk, not challenging at all. Some nice views of the canyon and river as well. Brought my dog here but he got tired quickly due to the heat. Bring plenty of water if youre coming here during a hot summer day.

This is one of the least appreciated places near the cities. Im an immigrant looking for nature and I find this place mesmerizing with canyons and clear water rivers. It makes me sad and angry to see how irresponsible people makes out of this river their trash recovery place. I mean, what do they have in their brains? Is this a normal behavior? These uncivilized people put a bad name on decent immigrants that comes to this country to enjoy freedom and share its incredible wilderness beauty. I will never understand this type of ignorance.

Its nice. Not a hard hike at all. Not alot of shade til you get to the end. Thats where you can really touch the water. One is not allowed in. I wouldnt recommend it either. Water current can get strong and there is a $1500 fine.

Hike is a little shorter than you might expect what with how inviting the river and the mountains are - you can walk through and get back in a little over an hour. You get to a big tree with a swing over a part of the river that seems somewhat deep (I would hope at least), then after that the trails thins out quite a bit.Views are unsurprisingly beautiful, and theres also a few Buddhist statues you can make out in the distance (I guess one of the trails neighbors is a modest temple). Solid.

Great hiking area and out door recreation. Just beautiful and amazing

Love nature. Went to the wrong side but still extremely gorgeous.

We when to the river this weekend we had a great time, the only bad side was the amount of trash that we found all over the place, people comes with food and leave their Trask in small bag where nobody will pick it up , if you go there make sure bring big plastic bag and leave your area clean

This place has been a sanctuary for me since i was a young girl. If you choose to visit , PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE pick up after yourselves & take care of the restrooms.. It saddens me what people do to such a beautiful place.

We buy 2 vehicle adventure passes every year, Azusa is beautiful, Ive been coming here since I was little, but people need to learn how to pick up their trash. They sure as heck enjoy coming out to the river, but they dont like picking up their trash after they enjoyed their day, HELLO thats why there is trash cans along the river especially by the picnick areas!!! They should give those people fines and never allow them back.

Love it because you dont need to hike it right at the other side of the road

This place was a beautiful family hike place! Quiet... shady in lots of places. From san diego this place was beyond beautiful

The river was beautiful the only down side is that we got confused getting there. But other than that I had a great time.

Great bike trail. Usually water flow

Its super awesome place to camp out and have a blast

This place is a lot of fun but be careful, we saw so many damaged wheelers and vehicles stuck in mud. I winched a Jeep out that was stuck deep in the sand.

Access to the water is not allowed due to Covid but, we were able to touch the water at least! The water is clear and so clean!

Easy walk/hike for the elderly or children on flat ground. Very little elevation changes. About a 30 min walk to the water and thats at a slow pace. Cool in the winter time, warmer in the summer as there is no shade along the path. Bring water. Enjoy.

Cold water but good for a hot day,

When I was a young kid about 14 years old, we used to go to the big park up Azusa Ave. We would hike up the canyon and we would always go to an old cabin called Hal Jacks place. Im just wondering if the people running this organization would know of an old cabin up the canyon in the late 60s. Any help would be appreciated...

Love this short this short trail! You can here the river while hiking

Beautifull views and nice walk. I would give 5 star rating but i always fine ticks at my dogs or crawling on my shoes. Make sure to always check your dogs,kids and yourself before going home but it is a nice place to walk.

There is a nice trail along the river but you need to go down the path a while before the view gets nice.

The greatest get away little spot and gem. I wish it had a place to eat there as well as a park. I love the stream and the hiking and horses.fast and near.

Magnificent mountain view!!Instagram @nytarzan

I thoroughly enjoy my time here its so peaceful and the view is just stunning.

Always have a great time with family

Place is disgusting!..Piles and piles of trash everywhere. I will not go back ever again!

Havent been here for years due to the over crowding. Went late in the day on a Sunday. Still over crowded people illegally having cooking fires. Saw a family illegally shoveling river dirt into plastic bags to take home for their plants. Tried to explain to them this was a Federal National Monument and you are not allowed to take things out of the environment, but they just laughed and kept telling me its ok. Just more ignorant people destroying the National forest for their own pleasure.

Serene!!! Alot of baby mosquitoes, spray before walking...

My husband and I love coming here. Its dog and kid friendly, very easy to get to, and lands next to a river.

Nice but people leave this place really messy a lot of trash

It is not open right now. Only for hiking

The hiking route with the creek is very pretty,but there are a lot of crushed stones on the road, if the children are together, you need to pay attention to safety.

Its a nice place to enjoy clean water time in the summer.

This is a good parking place to bike up CA 39. Parking is free and doesnt require a wilderness pass. As of summer 2019 theres a pretty dirty Porta potty. Arrived at 7am without anyone else there. Left around 3 pm with a nearly empty parking lot still. Theres not much in the way of water access, however.

The river was running very nice on 3/23/19

Beautiful, rushing stream. Great place to hike or drive. Multiple camping sites and places to hangout/rest/recharge after a hike or just to clear some energy.

Really nice place to visit you could do so many things hiking biking and even gold prospecting. Best times to visit weekdays . Weekends could get very overcrowded

Are they open now 4/1/20 I need fresh air

Great Place To Relax.

Great place to spend time with family

Very great place to stay camping..

Nothing really here, more parking than sights. Its got potential and a county improvement project is planned to improve the experience.

Good fresh fun and exercizuble

Natures always the best. Family loved it. I want to come back often.

Really dirty, I never see something like that before

Great place for a walk.

Was really fun for kids

This place was lit

Nice place

Loved this walk with my family... very peaceful.

The road is open August 8.

Beautiful place

Very cool

Shutdown cause of fire :(

Very good place to go only waist deep water and very relaxing

Great place

Nice place to spend with family.

Beautiful place to go and just disconnect from the city. Nothing but nature.

Is beautiful river. I love this river

Nice place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature with the family.

This would be a nice place if they didnt block the entrance and shut down whenever they feel like it or impose odd rules like no river access when its called river wilderness park. Also beware they hire their own rangers to enforce these laws.

Beautiful up there right now!Green and even some clear running streams.

It a beautiful place but the river a little dirty bc of people throwing stuff in it but it still the best river i ever been

I loved

Absolutely stunning. Great hike.

Awesome place to take your family for a nice and beautiful walk

The part of the river we went to was very disappointing. There was trash everywhere. Graffiti on the trash cans. Wouldn’t feel comfortable camping here at night. It was also over crowded. I won’t be visiting here again.

Its an amazing place to relax !

Peaceful walk

Im giving this 2 stars...I was wanting to photograph around water, and so looking at the map, I saw this location. Directed my friend to meet me here. We arrive, and find that you cannot access the river, or you will face a $1,000 fine or time in prison. Perhaps this should be listed as a TRAILHEAD. At least, I think there is a trail here. We left seeking water

Beautifull place to visit

I love this place.

The best hiking trails ever.

Great place to spend whit the family

Is beautiful place to hiking

Nice quiet places to go for a hike

Extremely refreshing to see the rushing river.

Beautiful! Lil cold. Lots of new years resolution hikers & family!

Nice for hikink

Nice place to camp with family

Beautiful

Good

Got stung by a bee but its a beautiful place to relax and enjoy with family

Good

They need to hand out mandatory jail time to people who cant pick up there trash or charge 50$ a vehicle so they can make a drastic change,water is clean people are filthy...

It was very fun until I went into the river...When me and my cousin were there we found a creepy doll with nails stabbed in its eyes arms, and legs.After that we heard screams of people smoking and doing stuff..Atleast I enjoyed it

Amazing short hike with the river (brook) beside all the way, very clean and lovely hiking accompany. But the trail looks ends up a little after where the small water dan is, can not believe this wildness park has a trail of only one mile one-way, maybe we did not go deep enough? Not any sign by the trail to guide us further so we turned around.

Great Place!!!

Great day for a hike.

Its an amazing place to go with your family. Kids will enjoy the day there

Great easy hike. Its pretty short but scenic.

Nice walk

Its an amazing trip, it is also an amazing experience for your children! I love this place

Beautiful and serene place.. very safe.

Cool place for the summer

My kids really like this place. Short hike, the river is beautiful

Filthy
