The majestic and breathtaking presence of the San Bernardino Mountains is hard to ignore. All year round, there are always plenty of fun activities and attractions to experience and natural beauty to take in when you visit the Silverwood Lake State Recreation Area. Fans of fishing will love casting their lines here, as the lake waters are full of trout, large-mouth bass, and bluegill. There are also plenty of trails that promise a satisfying hiking experience, excellent camping areas, and lots of green open spaces to stretch out and have some relaxing fun in the sunshine.
If your kids like to run around, or maybe they are at the age where they still like to play sports with dad, then plan a day at San Bernardino's La Plaza Park. This is an impressive play space attraction that sprawls out over two acres. It features several park benches and picnic tables as well as a picturesque gazebo where mom and dad can rest in the shade while the kids play ball, enjoy the playground rides, or just run around until they are all out of energy!
There's nothing quite like seeing the world from behind a set of handlebars, and that spirit of adventure is alive and well at the Redlands Bicycle Classic held every spring. This is the cycling event at which legends are born! The race covers more than 350 miles throughout San Bernardino and Riverside counties. The world's top racers gather for this signature event that is thrilling for both spectators and participants.
