About the Park

Lunar Landmark

Moon Park is a unique neighborhood park that commemorates the historic moon landing of July 20, 1969. The park's most distinctive feature is a 30-foot concrete dome designed to simulate the lunar surface, complete with various sized craters.

This large, gray concrete structure allows visitors to experience a small taste of what it might be like to walk on the moon.

Park Layout

Spanning 1.7 acres, Moon Park is nestled within a residential area but offers easy access from the Santa Ana River Bike Trail. The park's proximity to the bike path makes it a popular spot for cyclists to take a break or relax in the shade.

The location, while tucked away in a neighborhood, provides a balance of accessibility and seclusion.

Amenities

Moon Park features two separate playground areas for children, offering a variety of play equipment including a tire swing and a fireman's pole. The park also includes several picnic tables scattered throughout, providing ideal spots for families and friends to gather and enjoy outdoor meals.

While the park offers many amenities, it's important to note that there are no public restrooms available on-site. The park primarily caters to the local community and bike trail users, with limited street parking available for visitors arriving by car.
