Summer is almost here, which means it’s officially time to trade indoor plans for beach days, hiking trails, sunset walks, and every excuse possible to spend more time outside. Luckily, California State Parks Week is returning from June 10–14 with more than 170 free events happening across the state — including a full lineup of outdoor adventures right here in Los Angeles County.
From coastal yoga and guided mindfulness hikes to volunteer cleanups and campfire programs under the stars, these free events offer plenty of ways to reconnect with nature without leaving LA County.
