Oak Canyon Nature Center is a member of the California Regional Environmental Education Community Network www.creec.org/region9b ---PAGE BREAK--- O ak Canyon Nature Center is a 58-acre natural park nestled in the Anaheim Hills. A year-round stream meanders through the park. Consisting of three adjoining canyons, four miles of hiking trails traverse one of the few remaining areas of oak woodland and coastal sage scrub in our region. Native wildlife makes the canyon their home and is just waiting to be discovered. Also located on site is the John J. Collier Interpretive Center, a small museum with live animal and regional natural history exhibits. The Nature Center is ideal for those who are just stepping into the wil- derness for the first time or for those more experienced trekkers who are seeking a short hike. Tours are by reservation only, so call early for the best selection of dates and times. Nature Center staff can give you more tour package information and help to make specific arrangements at (714) 998-8380. We look forward to your visit!
