Bidwell Park

Manzanita Avenue divides Bidwell Park, with the western area known as Lower Park and the eastern as Middle and Upper Park. Each of these pieces has their own unique personality. Upper Park's more rugged terrain sits in the beautiful Sierra Nevada foothills, making for more rigorous hiking with some fantastic views. Lower Park is more accessible to a wide array of visitors, with paved, level pathways and a thick canopy of trees that provides welcome shade in the summertime.

About the Park

Bidwell Park was first established on July 20, 1905, and ever since, it has been a favorite outdoor location for locals to stretch their legs and explore the local environment.
