Head to the famous Universal Studio which is a film and studio theme park where visitors can immerse themselves in the work of Harry Potter or ride the Transformers 3D ride or play like a minion. There is so much to explore, you’ll impress the whole family.
Head to the park
One of the best things to do during the summer in California is to explore the amazing parks. And some of the best happen to be in Sylmar, here are some of our top recommended parks in Sylmar.
El Cariso Community Regional Park
There is so much to do at the 80-acre El Cariso Community Regional Park, especially for families. They have a swimming pool for kids to cool off, children’s play areas and even tennis courts, for a bit of family competition. You’ll also find many events hosted here including the annual Olive Festival in September (keep checking for updates on the date.)
Wilson Canyon Park
This is a must! The 240-acre park is located above the San Gabriel Mountains. Not only is the scenery absolutely breath-taking but you have your pick of stunning hiking and walking trails to take the family on. You’ll find plenty of wildlife and even an all-year round creek. Grab your hiking boot, a picnic, and the whole family for a scenic day out.
Veterans Memorial Community Regional Park
This 97-acre park has so many options for families. There is a large pavilion, big hills and a children’s playground. Families can enjoy a picnic, nature trails or even camping. But make sure you book one of the best hotels in California after all that walking, as you’ll need to rest.
Take them to the Wildlife Learning Centre
If you want to educate the little ones during your visit to Sylmar, then a trip to learn about animals from around the world at The Wildlife learning Centre is a must. You can opt for a more interactive experience during your stay, and even feed a porcupine, hold an owl or even get up close to a fennec fox!

Take the family back in time with a trip to the Nethercutt Museum! You’ll find over 130 vintage classic cars with some dating back to the 1890s. You’ll find everything here, from antique furniture, instruments and mostly cars. And the best part is. It’s all free!
