Scenery

This route covers a rise from the freeway up and through the Cleveland Forest then down a very steep hill to winding roads through orchards and ranches on through the city of Fallbrook to more hilly winding roads to Carlsbad on the coast. This road is suitable for all bikes but is best enjoyed at a leisurely 40-50 mph

Drive Enjoyment

No dirt or gravel though sometimes rough pavement in a few spots, very windy in spots and lots of hills

Tourism Opportunities

Most of this route is pure country and no amenities until you reach Fallbrook

Route was easy to follow, made one wrong turn and ended up on a dirt road, but easily backtracked. Depending where you start from, it’s a decent trip.

Mix of tight and wide turns but fun in either direction.
