Home / Facilities / Chino Creek Wetlands & Educational Park

The park consists of 22 acres that will be landscaped with a wide variety of California friendly trees and grass features a state-of-the-art irrigation management system. Key components of the park are the community education elements about the value of conservation and importance of wetlands in the structure of our environment which will weave throughout the site. The park serves as a demonstration site for community on how to improve water supply, storm water treatment, and water efficiency. Additional park features include wetlands and riparian habitat, trails, sampling stations, picnic areas, visitor’s center, parking, bridges, and an amphitheater.

The park’s construction was partially funded by a grant from the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB).
