Goodan Ranch Visitor's Center

Constructed beside the original ranch house lost in the 2003 Cedar Fire, the center pairs its exhibit areas with a multi-purpose demonstration room and low-impact energy systems. Outside, the grounds cater to trail users with an outdoor amphitheater, picnic tables, and a horse trough and hitching post. The surrounding 2,272-acre Sycamore Canyon Preserve encompasses oak woodlands, grasslands, and riparian pockets, serving as a launchpad for more than 10 miles of trails leading to canyon vistas, wildlife, and centuries-old traces of human use.
