The Paradise area also includes a variety of parks. Bille Park, Northeast of Paradise, has a half-mile trail along the
South rim of Butte Creek Canyon which offers a spectacular view of the canyon. There are also more challenging paths forking off the main trail.
By going further up Skyway and deeper into the foothills, you will discover the meticulously landscaped Merlo Park in the tiny community of
Stirling City. The gated park is privately owned by its namesake family and includes a chapel, trails and swan-dotted pond.
