From Poway to Fallbrook, from Del Mar to Oceanside, picnickers can find everything from the quiet, contemplative corner to the more energetic, active acre. Ocean Avenue Guajome Regional Park San Dieguito County Park Old Poway Park Tickle your tootsies and satisfy your appetite for fresh air and open spaces. This quaint park is huge and beautiful, with tons of shade, a stone-lined riverlet, gazebos and, of course, plenty of oak trees.
Kids can choose from two playgrounds.
There is also a horseshoe pit. Great spot for a birthday party or other special occasion. Kids will want to collect acorns, climb the tall oaks and scale huge rocks, while adults put out the spread on picnic tables and crank up the barbecues. Bluebirds, mountain chickadees, ravens and jays perch on cattails that surround the small pond, which is stocked with rainbow trout. San Diego Wild Animal Park , San Pasqual Road, Escondido.
