Fallbrook Land Conservancy is inviting residents and visitors alike to lace up their hiking boots and discover the beauty of Fallbrook's protected open spaces through the new Trail Challenge, a self-paced hiking adventure designed to encourage healthy lifestyles, connect people with nature, and support local land conservation.
Participants will explore a collection of FLC preserves while completing designated hikes and earning commemorative stickers.
Whether you're an experienced hiker, a family looking for weekend adventures, or someone just beginning your outdoor journey, the Trail Challenge offers an opportunity to experience some of Fallbrook's most scenic landscapes while making a positive impact on conservation efforts.
Get the kids outside and explore our preserves.
You may even fall in love with a new trail.
