Summary: Corriganville is a lovely 246 acre park, and one of my favorite places for a morning hike. The interpretive trail meanders down an oak shaded trail on both sides of a small creek, with interpretive signs detailing both nature and the 3500 movies made at this location almost 40 years ago. The slightly longer Loop trail takes you though some of the spectacular sandstone formations. This is a prefect place for an easy hike and picnic with a small child. Recommended!
Trailhead: From Highway 118/Simi Valley Freeway in Simi Valley, exit on Kuehner Drive. Drive 1.1 miles south to Smith Road and turn left. Continue 0.4 miles into Corriganville Park. (Lat:34.263092 Lon:-118.654621)

No real trail to follow but lots of rocks to climb around on. Super cool little cave at the top of the highest mountain. I could spend all day walking around here. Its very quiet and peaceful, and the movie history info markers make it fun too.

I hike this trail almost every morning. It's good for about a 40 minute look through the oak trees and lovely rock formations. The recent wildfires burned around the edge of the park, but really didn't do any damage to the park proper. Lovely green grass growning at the moment.

More of a stroll than a hike. A good place to throw a party (lots of tables available), but there are more interesting hikes within a mile or two.
