HIKING DAY

Hiking at Torrey Pines State Beach
September 23 at 11:00am meet in the parking lot
Start the hike at 11:30am

Torrey Pines State Beach
12600 North Torrey Pines Rd

Parking fee is $12 or a valid CA state beach pass. 
Here is a link to the state beach website with more info:
https://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=658

We will do the Beach Trail Loop, which is about 2.3 miles and 350 ft of gain. The tide will be falling so as long as it is low enough we’ll start on the beach headed south to flat rock. From there we will take the staircase up into the cliffs to the visitor center which we can stop and check out. From the visitor center we will walk down the road back to the parking lot. If the tide is too high at the start we’ll go backwards starting up the hill along the road towards the visitor center and finishing the loop along the beach. 

Bring: Water! There's no water along the trail. Snacks, you aren’t supposed to eat in the reserve, only on the beach. The trail is well maintained so hiking shoes aren’t necessary, any athletic shoe will be fine. Hat if its sunny, the trail is very exposed. There are bathrooms at the parking lot and at the visitor center. Here is a link to the all trails trail description as well:
