Bidwell Park in Chico, California

By Rachel Puryear

In the northeastern part of California is the charming college town of Chico. Chico is also home to the big, beautiful Bidwell Park.

You can hike the trails, enjoy the views from the mountains, swim and fish in the lakes and creeks, gaze at the night skies, and take in lots of natural beauty.

Here are just a few of the lovely views you can take in on a visit to this park:
