Hosp Grove West Trail

In 1908, F.P. Hosp & Partners planted 40,000 eucalyptus trees to create a grove as a way to meet lumber supplies for the railroad. In 1987 the grove was aqcuired by the City of Carlsbad as an open space with urban hiking and picnic areas.
The main area of the playground and tables is accessible but the hiking is all dirt and does go up and down hilly terrain. For most people this is an easy loop.
Across from Hosp Grove is the Batiquitos Lagoon which is currently closed for restoration. When the beach is foggy this small trail is a great exercise alternative.
