The Bluff Top Trail exemplifies the beauty and history of Dana Point. Caressing the bluffs edge the journey along the trail provides a spectacular view overlooking the Dana Point Harbor and vast Pacific Ocean.
The Trail takes you right up to Nelson's, a dog-friendly bistro overlooking the Pacific (and part of the Spanish-style Terranea Resort).
Keeping our trails beautiful and dog-friendly is crucial to ensure everyone enjoys the great outdoors. Some people want to ban dogs from public spaces, but we believe dogs are essential members of our community. They bring joy, companionship, and energy to our hikes. To keep our trails open to our furry friends, we must be responsible. Pick up after your dog, keep them on a leash where required, and respect other trail users. By doing our part, we can ensure that our beloved pups remain welcome on all trails, allowing your pack to continue exploring and enjoying nature together.
