The beauty of North San Diego County...

Beyond the Eucalyptus lined roads and riding trails, heading south, the charms of coastal San Diego await. Explore the storied beaches and cliffs of Solana Beach. Discover the hip, surf-centric vibe of Encinitas, Leucadia and Cardiff-by-the-Sea. Spend an afternoon cheering the thoroughbreds at fabled Del Mar racetrack. Play a round of golf at legendary Torrey Pines. Take in La Jolla’s coves, beaches and renowned art galleries. Or head to bustling downtown San Diego, one of the most dynamic metropolitan areas in the country.

A memorable way to take in the immediate area is from horseback along the miles of surrounding equestrian trails. North San Diego County is also a paradise for walking and hiking aficionados. Much of the remaining open space in the San Dieguito River Valley is being consolidated into a "river park" stretching from the beach at Del Mar to the summit of Volcan Mountain, where hikers can find themselves walking in a cedar rainforest one minute, or on an arid slope of coastal sage the next.

Rancho Santa Fe, a community like no other.
