One of the best hikes in town is at the Placerita Nature Center. At the Center, visitors can stroll around the 350-plus acres and experience the natural wonder of Santa Clarita. Trails are open to people of all ages and they are accessible for both strollers and wheelchairs. You can also bring your dogs as long as they stay on leash. There is a natural history museum on-site, live animal exhibits and moonlight hikes. The Center also hosts an Astronomy Club, Junior Rangers and summer camp for the kids. Historically, the Center is also the place to find the Oak of the Golden Dream. This is the spot where gold was first discovered in California.

Northern Los Angeles county is home to several new wineries producing top-quality, award-winning wines.

Santa Clarita residents are lucky to have a beautiful vacation spot right in their own backyard. One just needs to travel north on Interstate 5 to find the Castaic Lake Recreation facility. The lake is stocked with a wide variety of fish such as bass, trout and catfish, enough to make any angler content. There are actually two bodies of water at the facility. The upper lake is used for sailing, power boating, jet skiing and fishing. There are boat rentals and a tackle shop on site. The lower lake is reserved for non-power boating, canoeing and swimming.
Anyone who has ever tried it will tell you that starting your own business is a scary proposition. Most waged their own private war with doubt. Am I doing the right thing? I know I have a valuable service, but how do I let the community know about it? Is there a niche for my business here in Santa Clarita? Those are fair questions - questions every local budding entrepreneur and businesses owner should ask, must ask, really. And they do.
Stevenson Ranch is outside of the Santa Clarita city limits and is governed by the County of Los Angeles. The West Ranch Town Council (originally billed as the Stevenson Ranch Town Council) was established in 1992 as an advisory group by Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich. The name West Ranch Town Council was coined as a way to include homeowners who live in the communities of Westridge, Sunset Pointe and Southern Oaks. The council discusses everything from upcoming development to graffiti in the area. Elections are held on a bi-annual basis during the community fireworks show.
