Welcome
to Dunsmuir
Recreation &
Parks!
Sitting beside the Upper
Sacramento
River and nestled in a pine, oak,
and cedar forest, the Dunsmuir City Park is not what you think of when
you hear the word "park."
Our Park is a refuge from the hurly-burly of our busy lives. It's a
place where you can fish in a blue ribbon trout stream. Or where
children can run and play on safe playground equipment.
It is also a place for small picnics with a few close friends
…
or large parties with a 100 or more celebrants... a sacred place to
sanctify a marriage and celebrate the union afterward.
Our Park is a place of
great beauty with a rainbow of colors during
three seasons... and a blanket of white in
winter.
Starting in the spring, the Botanical
Gardens are a feast for the eyes
as dogwood trees, wild azaleas, Shasta lilies, rhododendrons and
countless other flowering plants burst into bloom.
In autumn the park colors dramatically change to golden yellow, mellow
orange and vibrant red as leaves begin to fall. Even in the winter the
falling snow lends its own touch of beauty to the area.

Our Park is a magical
place. Please explore it by taking a virtual tour
of the links to the left.
