The moment you step out of your car you are hit with the sweet smell of orange blossoms and treated to a sight fast disappearing from the Inland Empire. The park is situated on a hilltop with views of mountains and the valley below. There is a visitor center with exhibits and movies about the history of Citrus in California. Outside you will find miles of trails to explore, a gazebo with rose garden suitable for weddings, the Sunkist Center and of course Orange groves. Bring along a picnic lunch and enjoy a day trip to the California Citrus State Historical Park. Please remember It is a misdemeanor offense in the California State Parks to pick or remove fruit. The Gless Ranch fruit stand sells fresh citrus and juice and is located at the entrance to the park. It is a highly recommended that you stop at the fruit stand on your next visit to the California Citrus State Historic park.
