Featuring nearly 200 acres of undisturbed natural areas and a state of the art visitor’s center, the Eaton Canyon Nature Center is a go-to attraction for visitors who’ve tired of the area’s often overcrowded urban attractions. The center is set amidst the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains and includes engaging, interactive exhibits that touch on zoology, botany, and ecology; many of them are appropriate for young visitors. For families traveling on budgets, it’s a great place to spend an afternoon. During the spring, fall, and winter, when the weather is just right, it’s perfect for picnics, hikes, bike rides, and bird watching.

Eaton Canyon Trail is a 3.5 mile heavily trafficked out and back trail located near Pasadena, California that features a waterfall and is rated as moderate. The trail offers a number of activity options and is accessible year-round. Dogs are also able to use this trail but must be kept on leash.

There are other hiking trails around here. They are a bit flatter. The San Gabriel Mountains are gorgeous, if you like hiking I do recommend our local trails. It can get quite hot and dry in the summer and they can be closed because of fires so do look it up before you plan for hiking.

Great for a day of hiking. Get there early to find a parking spot.
