Aliso Creek Bikeway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The Aliso Creek Trail goes from South Laguna to Rancho Santa Margarita. It is an 18.5-mile multi use trail corridor that goes through a number of parks on the way. There are plenty of rest areas on the way for you. Starting shoreside, the trail goes gradually uphill, but it will be a fun trip on the way back.

Aliso and Wood Canyons Wilderness Park includes over 4,500 acres of untouched wilderness and natural areas. A lot of the "roads" in the park are smooth double-track paths, and there is a fair bit of singletrack as well. This is a great place to bring the gravel bike if you're comfortable on a number of surfaces.

There is a large packed dirt parking lot here with restrooms by the trailhead. The park charges a $3 fee. From here you have access to the trails along Aliso Creek, and you can head south to connect to the trail system around Dripping Cave and Cave Rock.
