The Whitewater Preserve is a true oasis in a desert canyon. You can relax in the shade of huge trees near beautiful turquois and green pools. Enjoy the lovely hummingbirds that buzz around the ranger station and cool your feet in the wading pool. There are a lot of picnic benches, restrooms and potable water. Using the area is free of charge, but consider a donation for this unique place that once was a trout hatchery.

Easy ride up Whitewater Canyon Road to the Preserve. There you will find a nicely kept picnic area where you can day camp, hike or soak in the nice swimming hole. The canyon has a robust population of bighorn sheep, deer, and bear!
