Pala Mesa

The rolling, chaparral-covered foothills around Pala Mesa have shaped its low-density settlement pattern and the area’s avocado- and citrus-growing economy. This northern San Diego County locality lies near Interstate 15, between Fallbrook and Temecula, where rural roads, groves and golf courses spread across terrain leading toward inland valleys. East of Pala Mesa, Mission San Antonio de Pala, founded in 1816, preserves a Spanish colonial-era chapel and freestanding bell tower associated with the Pala community.
