Recreation

The Laguna Mountains are known for great horseback riding, mountain biking and hiking trails. Visitors can get their boots dusty on a segment of the 2,650-mile Pacific Crest Trail, which runs from Mexico to Canada or try other nearby trails such as the Wooded Hills Nature Trail.

The Wooded Hills Nature Trail is accessible just west of the campground off of Sunrise Scenic byway. From the trail, visitors can ascend to the highest wooded point on Laguna Mountain, offering views of San Diego, Point Loma and the Channel Islands on a clear day.

The drive along Sunrise Highway weaves through woods brimming with pine, spruce, and fir trees, offering travelers many opportunities to enjoy pristine mountain meadows and amazing vistas.

Natural Features

The campground sits at an elevation of 6,000 ft. in the Laguna Mountains. It is forested with pines and oaks that provide plenty of shade. The area is a quiet home to many species of birds and wildlife.
