    Tips

    July 18, 2023

    El Cajon Mountain is one of the most challenging peaks in the San Diego area. It's a long, steep, climb to the summit with lots of elevation gain.

    The panoramic views from the peak make this a great, rewarding trek. Make sure to bring lots of water as it can get pretty hot on the trail!
