Ideal for hikers, Oakoasis Preserve boasts nearly 400 acres of
chaparral, manzanita, and woodlands. A 2.5-mile loop trail is well
marked as part of the future Trans-County Trail system, which is
planned to go all the way from Torrey Pines State Reserve to
Anza-Borrego Desert.
Explore the woods, hills, trail and
sweeping views of the mountains and bring your four-footed friends!
Horses are welcome, along with dogs on leash are welcome.
Star parties are common at this preserve; join park rangers and
the San Diego Astronomy Association on the second Saturday of each
month for an evening of free stargazing. You can take a twilight hike
to search for bats and scorpions, use high-powered telescopes with
pros, and stay overnight in the group camping area during warmer months.
