Marisposa Basin Park
This park offers three trail loops. Park at the north end of the parking lot. Start by walking west, past the ponds and gradually climb to the top of the hill. Look out for loose sand and uneven asphalt as the trail begins to climb. If you take Loop 1, the path returning to the play area is steep.
