Hike #56 Trans County Trail to Knott Grove

52 Hike Challenge Adventure Series

5.5 miles | +260'



In 1986, an on-duty CHP Officer murdered college student Cara Knott and dumped her body from an abandoned bridge above Penasquitos Creek. Her father, Sam Knott, spent the next decade lobbying to have the area near where her body was found dedicated to his daughter. In 1996, the site was set aside as the Cara Knott Memorial Oak Garden, and several years later was re-dedicated as the San Diego Crime Victims Memorial Oak Garden.

Love who you have, while you have them.
