The Cloisters Community Park and Morro Dunes Trails

Morro Bay, CA

As part of The Cloisters coastal subdivision, RRM Design Group designed a 57 acre Community Park including multi-use trail system.

The Park encompasses a 22 acre dune and wetland restoration program, a 4 acre community space, and 31 acres of wetlands, trails, and meadows. Park features include group and individual picnic areas, informal grass play areas, trails, interpretive educational displays, and a play area for children.

The comprehensive trail system includes multi-purpose trails that navigate environmentally sensitive coastal dunes and wetlands and connects to the Morro Bay Class I Citywide bike system.
