Margarita Peak is a prominent mountain in San Diego County.
Its 3,193-foot (973 m) summit is the 32nd most prominent peak in San Diego County.
It was considered one of San Diego's greatest hidden gems, due to the breathtaking 360-degree panorama views at the top.
The main trail began on Margarita Road after the end of Tenaja Road 13 miles (21 km) southwest of I-15 and led to nearby Margarita Lookout.
Persons attempting to reach the peak had to use a steep, poorly maintained firebreak that connected to the main trail.
