Mount Laguna Recreation Area

About Mount Laguna Recreation Area

Mount Laguna Recreation Area is a rebuttal to those who say San Diego is just a beach town. Less than hour away, this alpine sanctuary is nestled within the Cleveland National Forest just west of Anza Borrego Desert State Park. Mount Laguna has lush forests, mountain peaks, and meadows where you can hike, car camp, mountain bike, backpack, and easily access the Pacific Crest Trail.

In the winter Mount Laguna often gets snow which makes it the go to destination for sledding in San Diego. Put on your winter gear and head east to dodge trees on your Rosebud 1000.

Part of the Peninsular Mountain Range that stretches to the tip of Baja California, these mountains contain abundant wildlife including mountain lions, mule deer, bobcats, coyotes, and the almighty California quail.
