Review & FAQ:
If you are looking for an adventure when near La Jolla, test yourself at the Ho Chi Minh Trail. It is recommended only for fit, experienced hikers. This short, about 2-mile hike is narrow and steep on a crumbling sandstone cliff edge, which gets very slippery when wet. When you come to a log, if you are not comfortable walking over it, go under. When you get close to the beach, keep in mind that to your right is a nudist beach. If you are looking for a nice surf, go left. The trailhead is on the street near the Salk Institute for Biological Studies.
