Peters Canyon Loop

Overview

Peters Canyon Regional Park is centrally located in the city of Orange, near foothills of Tustin and Irvine. Because it’s located smack dab in the middle of Orange County, and because it actually has some decent hills with views extending to the coast, Peters Canyon is one of the more popular places to hike in OC. The trail described here is a lollipop-loop, returning along the original ridge that you hike out on. For an easier hike, or just to mix it up, you can alternatively hike the canyon trail rather than the ridge line.
