The Last Adventurer | Cuyamaca Peak - San Diego County's second highest peak! @TheLastAdventurer | Uploaded October 2020 | Updated October 2024, 9 hours ago.
At 6,512 feet of elevation, Cuyamaca Peak is only twenty feet shorter than Hot Springs Mountain, the highest peak in the county. However, despite being slightly shorter, Cuyamaca Peak is centrally located; and has amazing views of San Diego's backcountry. While there are plenty of trails to choose from, the most popular is the direct fire access road route to the summit. For those who prefer winter sports, the mountain also regularly receives winter snow. Finally, for those who want a challenge, Cuyamaca Peak and Stonewall Peak (it's nearby neighbor) can both be hiked in a day, as they are only six miles (Cuyamaca) and four miles (Stonewall) roundtrip each; leaving for a manageable ten mile hiking experience.
