HIDDEN CANYON PARK

Hidden Canyon Park is located in the Northeast Quadrant of Carlsbad. The park is a passive recreational park with walking paths, scenic seating and picnic areas, rest room, turfed areas, two tot lots and a recreational trail leading to Carlsbad's ever popular and first "Dog Park". This park is formerly known as Larwin Park. The 22 acre park site (3.5 acres developed) is divided by a large canyon which contains vegetation that supports endangered wildlife (the California gnatcatcher). For that reason, much of the park will remain as undisturbed permanent open space with trails that connect to the Carlsbad citywide trail system.
