Laguna Coast Wilderness Park lies within some of the last remaining coastal canyons in Southern California. The park ecosystem is primarily Coastal Sage Scrub, with Maritime Chaparral, Oak Woodlands, Riparian habitats, and the ONLY natural lakes in Orange County.

RJM provided recreational planning, interpretive programs, resource management park management and control programs for this 10,000 acre regional wilderness park. RJM teamed with Lawrence Halprin to conduct site awareness tours and community participation workshops to form consensus on park issues which in turn provided a foundation for design solutions.

The park is also enrolled in the Natural Community Conservation Planning program designed to protect various endangered species (California Gnatcatcher, Cactus Wren, Orange-Throated Whiptail) by preserving large tracts of the rapidly diminishing coastal sage ecosystem.

Lush, sycamore-shaded canyons and high ridges offer views of the Pacific Ocean create a spectacular environment for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding.
