The scenic 1.5-mile long South Bank Trail along the Carmel River in Monterey County offers a nice place to stroll with your dog. This trail is ADA accessible. The trail begins at the intersection of Rancho San Carlos Road and Valley Greens Drive in Carmel Valley. Dogs must be leashed on this trail. You’ll go through a forest of different kinds of trees, and see quail in the meadow. There are benches along the route to stop and enjoy the view.
