Visit official site →"Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve in Carmel Valley is a 4,000-acre urban wilderness with a creek-side trail system that feels significantly more remote than its suburban surroundings suggest. The main east-west trail follows the creek for 7 miles, shaded by coast live oaks and sycamores, passing through narrow canyon sections where the sound of the water blocks out the freeway noise entirely."
