Razor Point and Beach Trail Loop GPX Track

I need to offset my substantial website costs somehow! You can download a hike/drive GPX to assist you here. Before sharing my GPX tracks with others, please remember my site is otherwise a free resource.

Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve is a really pretty, popular destination near San Diego that provides access to the beach via a series of trails around eroded sandy cliffs. The extensive trail system is well-maintained and has some incredible wildflowers in the Spring. We checked out Razor Point and Yucca Point before heading to the beach below. The views of the Pacific Ocean framed by the wonderfully maintained flora in the Reserve make this a great little outing worth a visit if you're in San Diego.
