Torrey Pines State Beach (North End)

Highlight • Beach

This broad, sandy beach stretches for 4-1/2 miles and is a very popular place for swimming, surfing and fishing. The bluffs above the beach are particularly pretty, but they sometimes collapse or release rockslides. Officials recommend staying at least 10 feet away from the bottom of cliffs and bluffs.

One of the best and beautiful places to do hill repeats. From the golf driving range at top of Torrey Pines to the stop light at Del Mar Heights and back is 6.2 miles. If you've got some time shoot for 10 round.

Coastal Rail Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Coastal Rail Trail runs parallel to train tracks, but this parkway was finished in November 2005. It is 0.7 miles long in the heart of Carlsbad Village. The length is paved and flat, so skateboarders, cyclists and hikers have an easy trail to move on.
