Our Warrior Hike Challenge launched in 2015 as a way to celebrate the athleticism and mental stamina that’s required to climb what’s arguably the toughest hike in San Diego County – El Cajon Mountain in the El Capitan County Preserve.
El Capitan tends to be a popular destination among active duty and retired Military personnel. For this reason, we designed an event that could both celebrate these individuals and welcome their friends and family. By breaking the hike into three levels, participants can choose their own adventure; navigating the length of trail that best matches their individual interest and ability. Celebration stations sit at the 1-mile and 3-mile turnaround points. Extreme hikers will push their limits to climb to the summit for a 12-mile trek through the scenic, undulating preserve.
Warrior Hike Challenges take place twice a year on Memorial and Veteran’s Day weekends. Events are free and there is no need to register in advance; just show up and be sure to come early to give yourself plenty of time to complete the trek before sunset! Learn more: sdparks.org/warriorhike
Celebrate the 'upside of outside' with family-friendly activities in parks and preserves across the region, on a holiday we’ve coined Green Friday!
On Nov. 24, day-use fees at County regional parks will be waived, to encourage you to spend quality time outside. Through the weekend, we've planned volunteer tree planting events, fitness programs and educational activities that are sure to strengthen your green thumb, inspire wellness and bring holiday joy.
