The Ho Chi Minh trail is a scenic, short, and potentially dangerous hike. We parked by residential homes on La Jolla Farms Road and entered from a small entrance after a short 10-minute walk.
The entrance<br>easy to miss see map below to see the red pin location of this entrance 
Once we got to the trail we could see a parking lot to the right side. We believe this is where you are supposed to park for another nearby trail. This trail was slippery and had beautiful views. There were a few spots where some people would turn back around and head back.
There’s a lot of loose dirt and rocks and hiking shoes with thread would be highly advised. Be cautious about bringing children here. There used to be ropes by exposed areas that made it easier but they were gone as of our visit on 8/9/2020. During our trip, we witnessed a lady slip pretty badly down at least 2-3 yards. As we finished the short hike we came across lifeguards coming to rescue someone. This is a short trail and easy trail, however, there are exposed areas that you need to cross that can make this dangerous. Have fun exploring San Diego!
