| Fairview Park. Costa Mesa |
Fairview park is a great little park in Costa Mesa. It’s
situated on a bluff overlooking the 'not so scenic' Santa Ana River. There is a wide flat gravel trail that
loops around the perimeter of the park which is shared by hikers, families and cyclists.
Fairview Park is also the “secret” mountain biking spot where locals come to hit the jumps
and the makeshift dirt trails that snake through the middle of the park. The mountain bikes trails and the dirt jumps are
not maintained by the city, so you probably want to scout the trails before you
do any hardcore riding. The jumps can get washed out after any heavy rain.
Fairview park isn’t very large, probably less than 2 miles
in circumference, but you can turn your trip into a longer loop by combining
Talbert Park, Canyon Park and Fairview Park.
If you’re looking for an even longer ride, you can access the Santa Ana
River Trail from the park and ride 30 miles north to
