San Juan Trail Part 1 Socals Best MTB trails

San Juan trail is a Southern California classic. Many will tell you its overhyped and there are better trails in the area. Don't listen to them. We were on our way to ride Laguna Beach trails but when we got there we found they had closed the trails due to rain the night before. So, we made our way to the San Juan trail. After riding this trail, we were so glad Laguna was shut down, because this trail turned into a highlight of the whole trip. You need a parking pass to access the trails as they are in National Forest Land. Now, I know you may be thinking why did we ride San Juan if Laguna was shut down... well, San Juan drains extremely well, and is very dusty and sandy usually. But after a light rain turns into the coveted Socal Hero dirt. You can shuttle the trail, or do an out and back. It's about 11 miles one way and about 3000' of descending. We chose to shuttle it, as we would go back to the top one more time and hit Chiquita trail (video coming soon) as well and finish with a climb all the way up for the day. We ended the day hitting both with about 28 miles and over 4k' of climbing. Trail forks shows it as only 6 miles, but that's only the lower part from "cocktail rock" down to the parking lot. This video is from the upper San Juan, middle newer San Juan down to just past cocktail rock. Look for part 2 from cocktail rocks down.
