Enjoy a guided hike & great exercise on some of Palm Springs best kept secret hiking trails, known mostly to locals for being peaceful & much less crowded than the easy to find Palm Springs hiking trails. We’ll hike at a moderate pace & take in views of the desert valley & nearby mountains while learning about the native plants & their traditional uses by the Cahuilla tribe.
Enjoy the best viewpoints from these hills to capture stunning views & photos of the Coachella Valley, including sights of the windmills, Joshua Tree National Park, the San Jacinto Mountains, Mt. Gorgonio (the tallest mtn in Southern Cali), & the city of Palm Springs. The hike continues downhill into a small hidden palm tree oasis in a canyon (not in Indian Canyons if you're interested in Indian Canyons ask me), offering a unique & peaceful contrast to the surrounding arid landscape.
In the winter, keep an eye out for the endangered Peninsular Bighorn Sheep, who come down to the desert to give birth. If you're here then hopefully we'll see some, I've seen them here before.
Please see the Know Before You Book section for important physical details/trail info.
