Trail Updates
This trail is officially open! Thank you to everyone who participated in this vision and many thanks to the City of Encinitas for investing in this project.
The trail along Camino Del Norte in Olivenhain is progressing and is currently on schedule to be completed by the end of June 2022. What a wonderful asset for the community.
A picture tells a thousand words. Here’s a photo of the progress underway on trail 95 along El Camino Del Norte.
Working with the City of Encinitas traffic and engineering department we were able to install a “Slow for Horses” sign on the East Fortuna Ranch Rd. in Olivenhain.
Hello friends and neighbors.
The trail along El Camino Del Norte will begin construction March 30, 2022!
During construction, which is expected to be completed by the end of June, a trail detour will be in place for pedestrian/ equestrian access.
Ellies Bridge will be closed for this short period of time and trail users should follow the temporary route set by the City of Encinitas. Trail access will be diverted to the OMWD sewer easement starting at the windmill on El Camino Del Norte via the Meadow Mist Trail and Cole Ranch Rd.
I have attached a map below so you can see the area affected by the construction. The main construction along El Camino Del Norte will be monitored by traffic personnel each day assisting with the flow of vehicles traveling along this corridor.
We have been waiting a long time for this new trail and are very excited to see it come to fruition.
We worked with the City of Encinitas to improve better visibility for pedestrian and equestrian crossings along Lone Jack Rd. These new signs alert drivers to the crossings across the road.
New slow for horses signs
California vehicle code attached.
New Yield sign designed with pedestrian and equestrian images.
This trail runs along some properties behind Little Oaks Park Equestrian Park. The trail provides access for these residents and was overgrown with weeds and looking broken down. Now it is no longer a fire danger and can be used to start a trail ride or walk from here. The trail does not extend East as you run into some private property. Please do not trespass. This segment ends in 500ft.
The long awaited trail along Copper Crest has been installed. The trail along the Johnson property has DG footing and the trees have been trimmed bordering the trail. This trail still needs a connection before the designated crossing at Copper Crest and Wishbone Way. It seems there is more work to be done on the final section before this connection would be complete. This is what it looks like now.
The City recently added DG to the trail on Double LL Ranch Loop.
A new latch was installed at Little Oaks Park arena. Now you can open the gate to the arena from you horse!
Thank you Doug Goad for your donation.
