The refreshing Trabuco Creek picnic area takes recreation enthusiasts through oak woodlands and tall sycamores before settling into a creekside riparian area nestled in a grassy thicket. Spring and Winter are often the best time to picnic here as the streams are typically flowing after and during the rainy season. Located in the heart of the Silverado Canyon area, this picnic area is a short stretch from Holy Jim Falls and in close proximity to the popular Silverado Motorway.
