This is your interactive guide to California's history and natural environment! Virtual Adventurer, an official mobile app of California State Parks, is an immersive augmented and virtual reality adventure that offers a variety of educational and exploratory experiences. Discover and interact with the people, places, and historical events that define your 281 State Parks. New parks will continue to be added to the app, and each park's content will take visitors on an interactive journey through time, history, and the natural world. Download this app to deepen your connection to California's heritage, and gain a better understanding of those who call it home.


The new Virtual Adventurer augmented reality application was inspired by the Bodie 3D Project, recipient of a 2016 CITRIS Seed Award to UC Merced’s Nicola Lercari and Marcelo Kallmann and UC Santa Cruz’s Arnav Jhala.
