About this site
China Lake Park is a 28 acre wooded and largely undeveloped natural area including one of the largest lakes within the city limits. This is a view near the parking lot of a restoration plot on the South end of the lake. We will be able to watch over time as the young native plants grow into maturity and create a multi-layered and complex vegetation structure to support urban wildlife.
