Play in Vasona County Park

Santa Clara Valley residents enjoy this 151-acre park's wealth of venerable trees, grassy knolls and meandering waterways. A popular spot for picnics, hiking, sports and recreation, its grassy turf areas invite Frisbee tossing, kite flying, softball, soccer or volleyball. Vasona Lake is open for non-power boating year-round; paddle boats and row boats can be rented. Black bass, crappie, catfish and blue gill populate the lake and licensed anglers can try their luck. For picnickers, the park offers individual tables and barbecues along with eight reservable group areas. Children enjoy the ducks, though check the rules before feeding them.
