Overview:
Whiting Ranch Wilderness Park is a great day trip for any van lifer looking to go hiking or mountain biking. The park is highlighted by scenic rock formations, including the beautiful Red Rock Canyon. There are three intermittent streams: Borrego, Serrano, and Aliso Creek meandering through the park, each hosting an abundance of wildlife. You can still see remnants of the former cattle ranching days throughout the park. Whiting Ranch is a great place to spend the day and see the wild side of Orange County.
