    My 1000th review goes to the Coast to Crest Trail which is the path of the coast of Del Mar going…read moreall the way inland towards Volcan Mountain by Julian! I love this hike within the San Dieguito River Park especially the San Pasqual Valley segment. I've been doing this particular hike along the trail the past four years and it's awesome. Parking is plentiful and a cinch to find! I start this at the *San Pasqual Staging Area* which starts by a citrus grove, then passes a large turf grass farm, abandoned buildings, a closed dairy, and scenic views from afar amidst the vegetation and unique species of plants along the path headed towards *Ysabel Staging Area* which is about 6 miles out and back. I definitely enjoy exploring the San Pasqual Agricultural Preserve and all of it's beauty and history. There are more bicyclists than hikers along this route, which is pretty sweet for it being a mellow path. Next time I definitely want to turn it up a notch by doing one of the longer hikes which I believe will be about 12- 22 miles if I go further out. :)

    This is a nice hiking (and bicycle) trail that roughly follows the San Diequito River from the San…read moreDiequito Lagoon eastward. The area around the Lake Hodges one of my favorites. Sadly, the Lake is considerably smaller that we moved here 20+ years ago because of droughts and Dam repairs. Recently, the Lake Hodges Dam has been found to have very serious problems that will require significant reconstruction or replacement. The water level will kept at the 280 foot level. It may be 2034 before the Lake returns to "normal".

    We arrived around 8 AM on a Sunday, and the main lot was already full, but there's an overflow lot…read moreabout 400 feet away where we were able to grab the last spot. The trail itself was pretty quiet. We passed a few people here and there. It's very well maintained, though there aren't any signs or clear directions at certain points, so I'd recommend using AllTrails to stay on track. Also worth noting, there are no trash cans along the route, so plan accordingly. The trail is technically listed as not dog-friendly, but we did see a couple of dogs along the way. We did the 4.5-mile overlook loop. There were a few sections that were a bit steep, but overall it's a fairly easy hike with mostly flat terrain. There's a lot of greenery throughout, and the creek adds a really nice touch. It's a really scenic and peaceful setting. It took us about 1 hour and 45 minutes to complete. We went on a cloudy day, which ended up being perfect for the hike. Overall, it's a beautiful, well-kept trail and definitely worth checking out.

    What an incredible trail! The mix of flowing water and those scattered rock formations makes every…read morestep feel like a little adventure. Going around 10 in the morning sounds perfect for soaking in the peaceful vibe without running into many people. It's a relatively easy route with plenty of spots to pause for a picnic, making it the perfect way to connect with nature and start the day surrounded by quiet beauty.
