Ellena Park

Park Overview

Located on Kenyon Way in Rancho Cucamonga, Ellena Park offers 6.2 acres of public green space where you can escape the daily grind. This local park offers a peaceful spot for both locals and visitors looking to enjoy some fresh air and outdoor activities.

The park has about 15 parking spaces available, but fair warning - spots can be hard to come by in the evenings when everyone seems to have the same idea about visiting the park.

Natural Environment

What really stands out at Ellena Park is how well-kept the grounds are. The lush greenery creates a calming backdrop for a morning jog or an afternoon stroll. There's something wonderfully refreshing about the clean, quiet atmosphere here, and the abundance of shade trees makes it comfortable even on warmer days.

The thoughtful layout includes open spaces for impromptu activities alongside designated areas for specific sports. Those wide, grassy areas are excellent for sprawling out with a book or kicking around a soccer ball with friends.

Trail Connection

One of the best features of Ellena Park is that it sits right alongside the Pacific Electric Trail on its north side. This connection is particularly useful if you're into longer walks, runs, or bike rides.

Many people use the park as a welcome pit stop during their trail adventures - a place to catch their breath, refill water bottles, or simply enjoy a moment of rest before continuing their journey.

Sports Facilities

For the more actively inclined, Ellena Park has several options. Baseball enthusiasts can take advantage of the field to practice their swing or gather friends for a casual game.

The basketball courts are typically bustling with energy from pickup games, while the sand volleyball court tends to be a hit with teens and older kids looking to bump, set, and spike their way through an afternoon.

Children's Area

If you've got little ones in tow, the playground offers solid equipment that's particularly suited for children under 12. While not enormous, the play area is thoughtfully designed with younger kids in mind.

Beyond the playground itself, those generous open grassy spaces provide the perfect canvas for children's imagination and energy - whether that means cartwheels, tag, or just running wild and free.

Picnic and Social Areas

Planning a get-together? The park features several BBQ spots and picnic tables for hosting outdoor meals. These areas are well-maintained and offer a lovely setting for family gatherings or catching up with friends.

You'll come across comfortable seating scattered throughout the park - ideal for parents keeping an eye on playing children or anyone looking to simply sit back and soak in the peaceful neighborhood vibes.

Facilities and Amenities

No need to cut your park visit short - Ellena Park has clean, functional restrooms available. In fact, the overall maintenance of the park is consistently excellent, which makes spending time here all the more enjoyable.

Dog owners are welcome to bring their furry friends, though they'll need to stay leashed as per local rules. The open areas provide plenty of space for walking your four-legged companion, but you won't find any designated off-leash areas or fenced sections specifically for dogs.
