Ralph B. Clark Regional Park sits at the base of the Coyote Hills and stretches on both sides of Rosecrans Avenue. Its landscape includes broad grassy areas, rolling hills covered in native plants, and tall sandstone cliffs to the north. Visitors can use shaded picnic areas, hiking and biking trails, playgrounds, sand volleyball courts, softball and baseball fields, and four tennis courts. A stocked three-acre lake offers fishing, and an amphitheater overlooks the water. The Interpretive Center presents exhibits on prehistoric Orange County and a paleontology collection, and it hosts programs and guided tours. The park was first opened in 1981 as Los Coyotes Regional Park and was renamed in 1987 after a retired county supervisor.
