Hillcrest Park

Hillcrest Park is a public park and historical landmark in Fullerton featuring multiple levels connected by stone staircases, walking paths, and water fountains spread across the hillside. The grounds include picnic and barbecue areas, with a community clubhouse available for events and gatherings.

The park was acquired in 1920 and designed by architect Johann George Seupelt, with later improvements added through New Deal programs. This reflects early 20th-century urban park development in the region.

The Izaak Walton League cabin, constructed in 1931, continues to host community gatherings, club meetings, and memorial services within the park grounds.

The park offers free parking, restroom facilities, and picnic areas throughout the grounds for visitor convenience. Multiple levels and walking paths make it easy to explore at your own pace.

The park features 467 exercise steps spread across the hillside, providing visitors with a built-in workout while exploring the grounds. A water tank installed in 1992 is cleverly hidden within the landscape among surrounding trees.
