A 4-mile round trip hike to a 1,554-foot summit with 270-degree views from downtown San Diego to Mexico. Free, year-round, dog-friendly — and one of the city's best.
A slot canyon hike just off I-5 near Encinitas — narrow sandstone walls, a three-flight ladder, and Pacific Ocean views. 1.8 to 2.4 miles, free, year-round.
A 0.6-mile cliffside trail next to the Cave Store delivers Amalfi Coast views over La Jolla Cove. Free, easy, dog-friendly, and probably the best 15 minutes in San Diego.
