“Caswell Memorial State Park is a well-established hiking trail in Ripon. This state park of California, United States, preserves a riparian forest along the Stanislaus River. The park spans over 258 acres and was established in 1952. The trail type is a loop, with a length of 0.71 miles. The trails offer a glimpse of what the riparian ecosystem in the valley may have looked like in its pristine state. Dogs are welcome at the park but not allowed on trails, rivers, and beaches, and must always be on a leash. Caswell is a habitat for several endangered animal species, including the riparian brush rabbit. The park offers a wide variety of wildlife viewing. While many wildlife species here are nocturnal and rarely seen, bird watching is a favorite among nature lovers. Red-shouldered and red-tailed hawks and dozens of other winged artists are often seen. The park offers several species of fish, including bass, catfish, crappie, and more, and it awaits your most enticing fishing technique. Visitors can enjoy the park on Saturdays and Sundays.
