The Water Park at the Spring Lake swimming lagoon is back! Part playground and part obstacle course, the inflatable water park opens for the season on Saturday, May 28. New this year are morning and afternoon sessions and online registration that lets you reserve your Water Park admission in advance.

Ride the Regional Parks River Shuttle and avoid the weekend parking crunch at two of the most popular Russian River beaches. For $5, you can park at Tom Schopflin Fields in Santa Rosa and ride roundtrip to Steelhead or Sunset beaches in Forestville. Service runs 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturdays, Sundays and holidays through Labor Day.

Celebrate the improved Helen Putnam Regional Park! Visit anytime through June to enjoy a self-guided tour of the new and renovated trails and other investments at this popular park.

Protect and enjoy Sonoma County's natural beauty. When we follow Leave No Trace guidelines, we can enjoy the outdoors and lessen our impacts on the environment. Learn what you can do to support the health of the Russian River, Sonoma Coast and other parks. 

Join us for guided hikes, kayaking, day camps, park cleanups and other group outings and activities in the parks.
