The new Eaton Canyon Nature Center was opened in November of 1998, replacing the old one which burned in the Altadena fire of October 27, 1993.  Our 7,600 square-foot building contains many fascinating displays, live animals, offices, classrooms, an auditorium, restrooms, and an information desk/gift shop.

The Center is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, during which time a staff member is present to assist you.  Feel free to come inside and look around.  You will find information about hiking trails, animals, plants, geology, history of  the canyon, ecology, and docent-guided tours.

We are located at 1750 North Altadena Drive in Pasadena (detailed map).  Click on the thumbnail images below to see full-size photos and information.
