On January 12, 2005, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors all agreed to approve the County Trails Program and the Community Trails Master Plan.
The County Trails Program helps create trails and paths that connect different areas. These trails are for people to use for recreation or getting around. The program helps keep people healthy and happy by offering places to hike, ride bikes, and go horseback riding.
The County Trails Program includes both building and taking care of trails on public, semi-public, and private lands. The Community Trails Master Plan is the main guide for the program. It includes local trails and plans for paths that the community has approved.
