US Highway 395 used to travel from downtown San Diego all the way to the Canadian border. The highway was decommissioned south of Hesperia, CA in the 1960s and the 395 in Southern California was bypassed or replaced by Interstate 15. Pieces of the old road still exist if you know where to look though.

We've looked at a few abandoned sections of Highway 395 in the past, but this section is unique, as a piece of the road has been repurposed as a hiking and biking trail in the San Dieguito River Park, allowing people to enjoy a bit of road that once carried thousands of motorists too and from San Diego.

In addition to the still remaining road, we check out the David Kreitzer Lake Hodges Bridge, the longest stress ribbon bridge in the world, and a meadow that Highway 395 once traveled through where we find some incredible highway history.
