Get Outside at Lynch Canyon Open Space Preserve
Get out and get some fresh air and movement (while maintaining common sense and social distancing!) Fridays – Mondays at Lynch Canyon in Fairfield.
FAIRFIELD – Though COVID precautions might have you currently indoors, consider a healthy alternative to lounging around. Fresh air is one of the best ways to remain healthy during these unprecedented times. Lynch Canyon Open Space remains open for your hiking and wildlife viewing pleasure. It’s a proven fact that humans need to connect with nature and get regular fresh air and sunshine, so if you find yourself sitting around with extra time on your hands, think about getting out and exploring this hilly, natural landscape with 10+ miles of trails designed for hiking, birdwatching, trail running, horseback riding and mountain biking.
Defined by its rolling hills, grasslands, oak groves, riparian woodlands and wetland meadows, this haven provides shelter and forage for deer, fox, bobcat, waterfowl, and many raptors.
The park includes a segment of the San Francisco Bay Area Ridge Trail, with gorgeous views from its ridgetops across large swaths of the Suisun Marsh, Carquinez Strait and San Pablo Bay.

• Bring your own drinking water (no water in the park) and hand sanitizer. Trail access only (hiking, equestrian and biking)
