Join the Hiking ministry family from the Rock Church in Point Loma as we hike Mount Woodson (from the backside trail on Hwy 67). Let's embrace God's beautiful creation as we take in the spectacular views of San Diego as the sun sets! Be sure to bring a flashlight or headlamp as we will be hiking back in the dark. Try to carpool with friends if possible. Read the directions below on where to park as there is no parking lot or clear trailhead visible from the road. It’s always a fun time of fellowship and meeting new people. Hope you can join us!

DIRECTIONS:
To get to this hike you need to get to highway 67, you can get to highway 67 many ways but the easiest is to get off on Scripps Poway Parkway from the 15 and take it east until it meets the 67. Turn left and head north east towards Ramona. You will pass the trail head to Iron Mountain on your right and the end of Poway Road on your left, keep going past this point for another mile or 2, you will wind up the mountain and as you come down look towards your left (west) and you may see a bunch of cars parked along the road (unless its really dead that day), there is no parking lot so take a left into the fire station road, do a U-turn and go back out and park on the road. Make sure you hide any thing valuable in your car. The trail begins on the south edge of the driveway leading to the fire station. Several prominent signs make it hard to miss.
