Ortega Highway (AKA "The Awesome 74 to Lake Elsinor") - By Guest

This is a fun, easy day trip or great weekend getaway to the beach. My wife, she drives a Vulcan, go the opposite direction from Lake Elsinore to San Juan Capistrano then spend the night in San Clemente at a comfortable and friendly Bed and Breakfast, Always Inn. Beautiful mountain and costal scenery. Easy road other than the initial ride up the Ortega Highway on the Lake Elsinore side. Spectacular views of the Inland Empire.
