Zuma Loop Trail is a relatively short trail that branches off Zuma Canyon Trail. Hikers and equestrians can climb an easy few hundred feet above the canyon valley to take in great ocean views and rugged Zuma Canyon to the north.

The trail is accessible from Zuma Canyon Trail out of the Zuma Canyon Trailhead. From PCH, turn inland at Busch Drive across from Zuma Beach. Travel north and turn right (east) onto Rainsford Place. Turn left (north) onto Bonsall Drive and travel to the end. The trail leaves from the northwest corner of the parking lot.
