I love taking my kids here the trails are pretty easy for even kids that are age 4 years old. There's even a small man-made pond that you can play in during summertime.

This is my new favorite getaway. Spent the day here with my squeeze and we both didn’t want to leave. Best barely known wilderness ever…Um, nevermind, horrible place! Don’t go! Stay away! There’s zombies and rabid wolves! Our smiles were due to sheer panic from the hordes of brain eating creatures! Stay away!
Whitewater Preserve is 2,851 acres surrounded by the Bureau of Land Management’s San Gorgonio Wilderness and includes the year-round Whitewater River. Rich riparian habitat hosts the endangered southwestern willow flycatcher and least Bell’s vireo, and provides opportunity to see migrating summer tanagers and vermilion flycatchers. The canyon has a robust population of bighorn sheep, deer and bear, and is an important wildlife corridor between the San Bernardino and San Jacinto Mountains. The Wildlands Conservancy purchased an additional 3,200 acres in the Whitewater corridor that were donated to the Bureau of Land Management. These donated lands include sand dunes that are home to the endangered fringe-toed lizard at Windy Point.
