The lowdown: Park at Clairemont mesa blvd. There is trail parking (closes at 5) and street parking. There is north Fortuna, the saddle (connecting the two) and south Fortuna (all in a row) with lots of trails surrounding it.

You start off on a gray, gravel access road that follows the power lines. We followed the left side of the trail (every time it split) to get to north Fortuna first. You are less likely to get lost if you go this way. It is flat for about the first 3/4 mile. The gray, gravel trail leads to the rim trail. Follow the rim trail to the base of the mountain. You'll pick up the north Fortuna trail eventually (just head up). There are mini stairs on the north side. Once you are up, the Fortuna trail is easy to follow. You can take the access trail back once you are in the saddle (middle of the two mountains) or keep heading to the south Fortuna side. The south side gives great views of mission gorge and has the big stairs that everyone raves about. If you do the south side back- once you are at the base of south Fortuna pick up the red gravel access trail to get back (kinda follows the power lines). Use the power lines as a marker as that is where Clairemont mesa blvd starts.

Moderate hike. We made this a 9 mile hike in 4 hours with lunch at the summit but you can do it in 6.5 if you follow instructions above.

We did this in February - I am guessing it would be hot in the summer as there is not that much shade! But lovely, diverse terrain and great 360 views. You won't be disappointed.
