Hidden Falls Regional Park

The proposed project is located between north Auburn and the City of Lincoln in Placer County, in the Sierra Nevada foothills approximately 40 miles northeast of Sacramento. The approximately 1,200-acre Hidden Falls Regional Park (Park) consists of the properties formerly known as Spears Ranch (979 acres) and Didion Ranch (221 acres). The project area includes portions of Coon and Deadman Creeks and is located south of the Bear River. The Hidden Falls property is bordered on all sides by private property. In the project area, Garden Bar Road is located to the west; Mt. Vernon and Mt. Pleasant Roads are to the south; Bell Road and Hubbard Road are to the east; and Big Hill Road is to the north.

The proposed project would develop phased recreation and access facilities on the 979-acre former Spears Ranch property and would expand the existing parking area on the Didion Ranch portion of the Park to provide opportunities for passive recreation (i.e., hiking, biking, horseback riding) on the entire 1,200-acre Hidden Falls Regional Park.
