Sonoma County
Regional Parks

This month the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District (Ag + Open Space) will transfer ownership of a 1,236-acre coastal property to Sonoma County Regional Parks. This land, owned and managed by Ag + Open Space as Wright Hill Ranch, will eventually open to the public as a regional park and open space preserve adjacent to the Red Hill portion of Sonoma Coast State Park, just south of where the Russian River meets the Pacific Ocean.

This month the Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District (Ag + Open Space), a special district dedicated to protecting our working and natural lands forever, will transfer ownership of a significant and storied 1,290-acre Sonoma Valley property to Sonoma County Regional Parks. 

Sonoma County residents and visitors looking to visit two of the most popular Russian River beaches this summer can avoid the likelihood of full parking lots by taking the new Sonoma County Regional Parks River Shuttle. 

Outdoor enthusiasts will once again be able to hike, bike or ride in parts of Hood Mountain Regional Park and Open Space Preserve this summer when Sonoma County Regional Parks re-opens the Sonoma Valley park to limited public access on June 1, 2021. Hood Mountain Regional Park has been closed since September 2020, when the Glass Fire burned approximately 80 percent of the 2,000-acre park.
