Ted Craig Regional Park
Fullerton, Orange County, CA
About Ted Craig Regional Park
Craig Regional Park was completed in 1974. Its landscape of rolling hills, many kinds of mature trees, open space, a small lake, three year-round creeks, and a rose garden gives it a calm feel, and walkways, picnic tables, and benches are spread through the shade.
The 3-acre lake draws migratory waterfowl every year, and radio-controlled model sailboats may be launched on it. The park is also a wildlife sanctuary and a popular bird-watching spot.
Six picnic shelters and two group areas have tables and barbecues, with more tables and grills scattered across the grounds. Sports facilities include three softball fields, a baseball field, jogging trails, horseshoe pits, and a complex with basketball, volleyball, and racquetball/handball courts; there are no soccer fields. Bike and walking trails run through the park. Parking is $3 per vehicle on weekdays and $5 on weekends, and more on some holidays and event days.
