Reviews
This place really does have something for almost everyone. The fields are kept in pristine condition for which seems to be year round. There are RC car race tracks as well as “air-space” with a runway/ landing for the RC pilots. There are several downhill mountain biking trails and hiking or dog walking trails for those on the mellower pace. Did I mention the paragliding lessons that you can also receive from 2 different schools here as well? I went with Fly Above All Paragliding , but Eagle is the other one. The views are pretty remarkable as well. Especially from the air!
Bought membership,Came today on my day off to walk my dog only to be told that park is closed for 3 days due to some kind of event.
Personnel at the gate was VERY rude, inappropriate, disrespectful.
The owners should pay serious attention to there communication skills.
Went to Oak Park, no fee, ample space, green grass, no scolding and yelling at.
My little dog was happy, so was I.
Will seriously consider resuming membership.
There are so many beautiful, dog- friendly parks in Santa Barbara.
A massive park with incredible hiking and recreation options. Costs money to enter on weekends (and was told cash only). Epic views on top of mountains overlooking the ocean and the whole city. A sight worth seeing.
I highly recommend Ellings Park to anyone around the Santa Barbara area!
I’ve had the pleasure of attending the Fields of Funk Music Festival twice at Ellings Park, and both years were fantastic! The outdoor stage setup is perfect for a music festival, creating an awesome atmosphere surrounded by nature. The park itself is incredible, with scenic hiking trails that lead up and around the mountain. On a clear day, you can spot the Channel Islands across the Pacific, including Santa Cruz Island to the south and Santa Barbara nestled to the north. There are sandstone formations, palm trees, and stunning homes built into the hills. You’ll likely encounter a steady flow of hikers, bikers, and even paragliders, which adds to the park’s lively vibe. All around great vibes.
Most beautiful hilly park with lots of parking and sports fields, non electric dirt bike track,clean bathrooms, closes at sunset. Gorgeous views, you can see Hendry’s and all the way down to Summerland, Padaro Lane
