link in the 1800s as part of the Southern California stagecoach network.
Since then it has become a family-oriented community. Visitors enjoy golf,
tennis, racquetball, swimming, volleyball, batting cages, softball and
more than 50 miles of trails for horseback riding, hiking, jogging,
running and walking. You can hop on the Poway Trolley

shops. The climate is mild, and there is 140 acres of developed
