It is definitely legal on your private property, it could be considered trespassing on others private property. Schools have their own rules, so they could call it a violation of school rules for students or trespassing for adults, if they ask you to leave or stop. On public property, like parks owned by the city, they could ask you to stop or try to arrest you for reckless endangerment, or if you refuse to come down they could try disturbing the peace or obstructing an officer in his duties, but the only one that could possible hold up in court at all is maybe disturbing the peace, but only if it's actually disturbing people. Really, it's exceedingly unlikely for anybody to make a fuss if a child climbs a tree or an adult helps them, or even decides to go in themselves. If you had problems with somebody stopping you and saying it's illegal, they are most likely lying. The only possible reason for you to not be allowed to climb a tree in public property is if it was endangered or if climbing it would be a danger to you and others.

It is generally legal to climb trees in California on public land unless there are specific posted regulations prohibiting it. However, on private property, you would need permission from the landowner before climbing trees.
