Breathe the ocean air on an 8 minute walk to quaint restaurants and shops.
Enjoy a run, walk, or bike ride on this trail, which winds into La Jolla Village with ocean and mountain views along the way.
Just a 5 minute walk to a neighborhood playground with large canopy trees that provide shade throughout the day. Perfect for dog walks and playtime!
