Kids Encyclopedia Facts


Parma Park is a park located in Santa Barbara, California.

The park is situated on State Route 192 (Stanwood Drive) about one mile west of its junction with State Route 144. Highway 192 is the main foothill bypass of Santa Barbara, and goes past the now underground Sheffield Reservoir. The park itself is located in chaparral and oak-covered hills. The park is relatively primitive, with a handful of picnic tables; however it has several hiking and horse trails.

The park is also the major landing zone for hang gliders and paragliders launching from Gibraltar Road.

The majority of the park was burned in the Montecito Tea Fire.
