This preserve is located in the far northwest corner of San Diego County.  Margarita Peak Preserve is CLOSED TO PUBLIC for biological studies and sensitive habitat.

This 1207 acre preserve was acquired in 2007 through a partnership with Camp Pendleton, the California Wildlife Conservation Board, and the Trust for Public Land.  It is our largest preserve and at 3,193 feet, it is the highest point in San Diego county west of I-15.  This remote and pristine property is home to an abundance of native plant and animal species.

It is visible on the western horizon from many locations in Fallbrook.
