Explore the many local trails
There is a lot to do in Scripps Ranch and getting out in nature is no exception. There are more than 30 wonderful trails right in your own backyard.
Some trails have fun surprises like a swing, rock stacking exhibit and a large wooden mobile; and some people have seen teepee structures.
The Scripps Ranch Trails Committee was started in 2021 and consisted of Bill Simmons, Don Endicott and Scripps Ranch Civic Association committee chairs Rob Holmes and Helen Plutner. Throughout 2024, the Trails Committee has helped maintain the different trail spaces through work on erosion control on trails #15 and #19; added and secured new bridges over ditches; added trailhead signs; and cleared trash and brush.
Want to help? Committee members as well as trail work volunteers are needed:
• The committee meets on a monthly or bi-monthly basis. (mostly on Zoom)
• Trail work is usually scheduled on weekends and volunteer availability.
• Tools in most cases will be provided.
• Scout troops, church groups and other groups are encouraged to work with us.
If you are interested in helping the community keep the trails beautiful and meeting our future goals, contact the Scripps Ranch Trails Committee: trails@scrippsranch.org.
Come out to explore the many trails and see what you can find. One of the structures you may find is pictured. Happy hiking in Scripps Ranch!
The Scripps Ranch Trails Committee is a subcommittee of the Scripps Ranch Civic Association.
