Guadalasca Trail will reward you with beautiful views of the mountains and the ocean in the background. This is a well-marked but not very popular trail; it can be challenging, but it’s definitely worth it. Here, you can find wildflowers during spring, and you might need to cross a few streams. The trail is also shared with mountain bikers, like others in the area.
