Important Park Information: Parking fees: $5 Sunday. Due to higher numbers of visitors and picnicking parties on weekends, Irvine Regional Park has been closing to vehicle traffic due to reaching capacity. Closures typically take place between 12 p.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Please plan your visit accordingly.
As parking near the Deer Den Group Area is limited, car pooling is encouraged. Please keep an eye out as to the terrain… this site is popular with gophers too.
