Description for Santa Ysabel Open Space
Oak woodlands, native grasslands, and wildflower fields for you hiking, biking, and riding exploratino within the boundaries of this 3,800 acre preserve. Santa Ysabel Space Preserve was create in December of 2001 when San Diego County received it from the Nature Conservancy.
