Note: Poway is an inland suburb. Nearby is Lake Poway’s recreation and hiking - tons of trails. People come from all over the world to hike to Potato Chip Rock and take photos for social media. From my home, guests can hike down to Lake Poway and access multiple trails. Guests can even hike to Potato Chip Rock the long way. The short way is to drive to the Mt. Woodson Preserve trailhead (19 min. drive).
