Cappie’s Scoop: I’ve hiked the trails in this area a lot but this time we went a different way and it was really cool! We hiked along the water and up to a point with a great view! This trail didn’t have a lot of hoomans or dogs on it when we hiked it in the morning. On the way back to the car, there were mountain bikers on the trail so keep your eyes out for them. They go really fast! Don’t hesitate to add YOUR scoop in the comments below!
Tips: We started this hike from the parking lot on W Bernardo Drive where you can access multiple trails. There are a few trail junctions along the way so recommend you have a map handy on your phone so you don’t miss a turn! The David Kreitzer Lake Hodges Bicycle Pedestrian Bridge is nearby and worth walking over. It’s the world’s longest stress ribbon bridge.
Directions: Can use address 19140 W Bernardo Drive. From I-15, take the W Bernardo Dr/Pomerado Rd exit and head west on West Bernardo Drive. Follow West Bernardo Drive for approximately .5 miles. The parking lot will be on your right.
