Fire Safety in Parks

Fire Incident Active Near Oat Hill Mine Trail

Oat Hill Mine Trail and the Table Rock side of Robert Louis Stevenson State Park (including Palisades Trail) are closed until this incident is resolved.

Please be aware that there is an active fire near the Oat Hill Mine Trail in Calistoga. CalFire is responding to the fire and we will reopen this trail as it becomes safe to do so.


Fire Weather & Outdoors Safety

The Napa Open Space District occasionally closes parks and trails for user safety during Red Flag weather events and active fires. This is done both to protect trail users during potentially dangerous weather events and also to remain out of the way of fire and emergency personnel responding to active fires.

For more information about Red Flag conditions and forecasts, please visit CalFire or the National Weather Service web pages.
