Devil's Slide Trail
Devil's Slide Trail, Coastal trail in San Mateo County, US.
Description
Devil's Slide Trail is a paved pathway along the Pacific coastline with separate lanes for cyclists and walkers. The route passes several viewpoints and interpretive signs that explain the coastal landscape and its features.
History
The site was once a dangerous section of coastal highway that closed repeatedly due to landslides and erosion. Converting it into a safe pathway allowed people to access this stretch of coast again.
Culture
The path connects local communities as part of California's coastal trail network. People use it to experience the shoreline habitat and learn about the ecosystems that thrive along this stretch of coast.
Practical
The path is open daily and provides restrooms, drinking fountains, and bike racks along the route. Prepare for changing weather and bring appropriate clothing, as the open coastal location is exposed to wind.
Did you know?
