Citywide Trails Master Plan
Chollas Creek Watershed Regional Park Master Plan
A Trail System that Enhances Recreational Opportunities, Provides Connections and Supports Environmental Conservation
Identified as a key implementation action of the Parks Master Plan, the Citywide Trails Master Plan (Trails Master Plan) will guide the provision and enhancement of open space multi-purpose trails that serve pedestrians, hikers, bicyclists, mountain bikers and equestrians, where appropriate, and provide safe and convenient linkages to parks, recreation facilities and open space areas.

Vision

More than just a blueprint for trails, the Trails Master Plan will serve as a framework for future trail planning, emphasizing the integration between trail development and open space planning and conservation efforts. In alignment with the City’s Multiple Species Conservation Program, the Trails Master Plan will ensure that trail development respects and preserves our natural habitats and biodiversity.
Beyond trails within our open spaces, the Trails Master Plan will also address the vital role of urban and recreational connections in fostering vibrant communities across San Diego. By enhancing connectivity and accessibility, the Trails Master Plan seeks to promote active lifestyles and enrich the quality of life for community members of all age groups and all abilities.
