Description

This is a short and easy loop in Zuma Canyon accessed from the Bonsall Drive Trailhead. The first 0.5 miles is flat (also called the Zuma Canyon Trail) and follows the creek. The trail then turns left and makes a short climb up the ridge before descending back down to the bottom of the canyon. It connects to both the Ocean View Trail and the Canyon View Trail.
