What to do and see in Orange, California (CA): The Best Outdoor Activities

January 16, 2022 Natalie Tallman

Orange is a city located in Orange County, California. It is approximately 3 miles (4.8 kilometers) north of the county seat, Santa Ana. Orange is unusual in this region because many of the homes in its Old Town District were built prior to 1920. While many other cities in the region demolished such houses in the 1960s, Orange decided to preserve them. The small city of Villa Park is surrounded by the city of Orange. The population was 139,812 as of 2014.

Irvine Regional Park

Reviewed By F-F-7676 - Los Angeles, United States

This park is a really nice one, pretty large and with good parking. Inside this park you can find the OC Zoo, an equestrian center, many picnic areas, a little lake and some more attractions. They have a farmer market once a week and always events and games set up for all the holidays during the year.

Orange County Zoo

Reviewed By F-F-7676 - Los Angeles, United States

This zoo is inside the Irvine Regional Park, so you need to pay to enter in the park and you need to pay to enter in the zoo . The zoo is pretty small and you can visit it in 30 - 45 minutes but it is cute, there is a bit of every thing here and the staff work hard on this small zoo. I have been to this zoo many times and my son loves it. The petting area is really nice and they have always great activities during Holidays.

When we arrived we saw a reservoir. It was so beautiful. We found a place for hiking and we walked near the reservoir. We saw yellow flowers. There were cacti and ducks in the reservoir. A must see!

Black Star Canyon Trail

Reviewed By VeganVacation - Orlando, United States

Takes about 4 hours total there and back if you take your time. First half is flat, the second half you’re climbing over rocks and boulders along side a creek leading up to a beautiful waterfall. The hike was fun and gorgeous. People had dogs with them, and people of all ages were able to make it to the waterfall.
