kalamoir regional park

Take the lower trail that hugs the lake — it's wider, easier to walk side by side, and leads you to the coves where you can actually sit at the water's edge without anyone else around. Watch where you step off the path; the prickly pear cactus patches are real and invisible in low light. This is the part of the night that makes the whole thing feel like something you found rather than something you planned.

# Kalamoir Regional Park - Date Planning Guide **Best for:** Casual, outdoorsy dates or anniversaries if you're both into nature; skip it for a first date if you need conversation flow since it's more about the scenery than amenities. **Best time:** Weekday mornings or early afternoons in spring/fall when it's quiet—summer weekends get packed and the trails are crowded. **What makes it special:** You get secluded little coves and nooks along the lake with mountain views, plus a scenic loop trail that feels genuinely off-the-beaten-path without feeling sketchy. **Vibe:** Peaceful and low-key with zero pretense—just natural beauty, vault toilets, and picnic tables; the upper trail is narrow and moody with great views, while the lower trail hugs the lake and is wider and easier to walk side-by-side. **Heads up:** Watch for prickly pear cactus patches lurking just off the trails (they're brutal to remove), the main Collins Hill entrance closes in winter due to a steep road, and parking is limited—street parking near Sunnyside or Casa Loma neighborhoods works if the main lot is full.
