Noble Canyon Trail

Desert Views, Meadows, and Steep Mountain Switchbacks

Trail on Lucas Creek, Pine Valley Creek in Cleveland NF in Pine Valley, CA

With 3 distinct topography ranges, Noble Canyon is one of the few areas to offer vast Anza Borrego Desert views, wide stretches of open meadows, and crisp air atop the Laguna Mountain, all while touring shrub-covered backcountry, jagged peaks, and an abundance of wildlife activity. An hour’s drive from San Diego proper, this solitude-inducing day trip provides more than a killer leg workout, it is also hailed as one of the premier riding destinations in the country, making it a popular destination for mountain bikers everywhere.
