Hiking Torrey Pines

Torrey Pines

Great hike for an intermediate fitness level, very populated but still can enjoy the views of the beach and waves. Recommend traveling all the trails, many different outlooks!

Go Early

Easy and pretty trail system. Go early to avoid crowds of tourists as well as the hassle of parking.

Great Family Spot

Easy hikes with fantastic ocean views the whole way. There is an entrance fee if you want to park at the trail heads which I recommend if you have little ones or seniors. Otherwise you have to walk up a hill for about a mile. There is a ranger station with a gift shop and restrooms.

Go For The View Then Get A Sando

Hitting up board and brew for a sandwich after Torrey pines is the best. So is the ocean after a hike. Hike, beach, grub :)

Amazing

Parking fee is $15 but you have in/out privileges which I think is nice thing to have. There is parking at the beach and at the top of the park. The free parking is limited and I think there is a time limit of three hours. its a steep walk to the top. My suggestion if you don't hike a lot, park at the top and save your energy for the hikes within the park. Great views. Do not miss the hike down to the beach.

Highlight of The Weekend

When visiting San Diego for a long weekend Torrey Pines was on the to do list. The winding trails and cliffs that bring you to oceans edge are beautiful. A spot and hike worth making the time for!

A Great Place To Spend The Morning

I'd recommend heading out there early in the morning. That way you can avoid lying for parking and snag a free space at the waterfront. The park was fantastic. So many different views, all equally as breathtaking. Taking the beach stairs was a blast, it's a never ending treasure trove of adventure. Check this out!!

Easier Part Of SD

This is a beautiful hike! No doubt about that, it is also one of the more easier hikes in San Diego! I'd rate it a 5 out of 10 difficulty. And I'm not a Avid hiker. Just your average joe! I won't even say bring a camera it's the 21st century everyone's got there phones!

A wonderful hike with awesome views

Cliffs, beach access, ocean vistas, and unordinary landscapes make for some great photography. Bring a camera because Torrey Pines is gorgeous.

Scenic place to get some cardio in!

There are plenty of trails and some good uphill grades. If you are looking to burn a few pounds and take in some beautiful views--this place is it!

Even better at sunset

For the best hike, I'd recommend starting from the top and heading down to the beach from the north side of the loop, then returning from the south side of the loop. One of my favorite hikes in the San Diego area. Seriously amazing during golden hour.

Lovely little jaunt. Peace among the southern California hustle and bustle.

Very moderate to easy hike to get beautiful views. Parking can be a hassle on the weekends if you don't want to pay to park in the lot. I always recommend this hike to friends that aren't avid hikers and want to do something as a date night. The sunsets from the top of the hill are beautiful. Trail: well maintained, depending on where you are it's either concrete, dirt or sand.

Guy Flemming trail is easy and has great views, but it is just a teaser compared to Razor Point and Yucca Point.

Tips: Reserve hours: 7am-sunset. No dogs/horses/bicycles/picnics on trail.
