Start by parking at the large parking area just off Highway 79. Cross the road to find a singletrack trail heading north. Follow the trail until it intersects a dirt road and continue heading north.<br><br>The dirt road is rarely used; it is steep in some sections, may be overgrown, and has large and small loose stones. There are some very nice views along a couple parts and you may startle deer and turkey along the way.<br><br>The dirt road intersects a paved road. Going up takes you to the top of Cuyamaca Peak. This is a very steep road which may force riders to push, zig-zag, or crawl up to the top. There is a brief rest near the summit equipped with a bench where riders can gain their first view of the other side of the mountain - great breeze and view. <br><br>Continue the effort to the very top and enjoy the majestic views all around before returning to the start or finding another trail to enjoy.
