In Short – The 477-acre park is filled with picnic areas, hiking trails and family-friendly activities, including play areas and tot lots, fishing (in the park's two lakes) and bike rentals. Pony rides are offered on weekends and holidays, or hop aboard the Irvine Park Railroad, which circles through the park's oak woodlands. Party pavillions and group picnic areas are available for reservation.

The Great Irvine Park Railroad First Easter Eggstravaganza!
by daisyturney
I HIGHLY recommend Irvine Park Railroad. The Railroad is one of the best-kept secrets in Orange County! I was at the park again this weekend and noticed that they're promoting their first Easter event. There will be Easter egg hunts for children; children can also meet and have their picture taken with the Easter bunny too. The web site states that there will be a moon bouce, carnival games, pony rides and a lot morel I cannot wait for this event next month. Irvine Park Railroad does everything RIGHT!!!!
- Pros: Great outdoor environment, lots of activities, and friendly people.
- Cons: It gets cold toward the end of the day.
