San Dieguito Lagoon

3.5 miles, no ascent, no hazards.

This is hike number 5 in Jerry Schad's book 50 Best Short Hikes San Diego, an easy out-and-back hike along the north side of San Dieguito Lagoon. We'll follow the Lagoon Trail, which is part of the Coast to Crest Trail. It passes under I-5. We'll continue on the Riverpath to the remains of the Old Grand Avenue Bridge. We did this hike last summer
on August 23. For details, including some pictures, see www.meetup.com/sandiegodayhikers/events/295600690

We meet at 9:30 AM at the trailhead at the south end of San Andres Dr. and at 9:45 AM we'll start the hike.

Directions: Go north on I-5 and exit at Via De La Valle (exit 36). Go east about 0.13 miles past a shopping center and turn right into San Andres Dr. Go all the way to the end of the street. The area is served by NCTD Breeze bus 308.
