Route 66 Trailhead Park in Rancho Cucamonga
1,850 views Jun 17, 2020 Route 66 Trailhead Park is a small but neat park located on Historic Route 66 in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. The park was dedicated in 2012 and includes a portion of the original Route 66 roadway that you can walk on, an exhibit on the Pacific Electric Railway, grapes, a really cool bridge, and access to the Pacific Electric Trail. While this is a newer place to stop on the Mother Road, it is worth a quick visit if you find yourself in the area.
