Andreas Canyon Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 An amazing place with a short 1 mile loop... half of the hike is in the sun (bring plenty of cold water to drink) and the other is down in the shade of the oasis; if you start the hike on the trail to the right of the parking, you will go through the oasis first, but if you go to the left of the par...

Garstin Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 You can park near 3138 Barona Road. A nice loop that took us two hours was to start up the Garstin Trail, once you get near the top take the left trail down, which connects to the Earl Henderson Trail. Henderson Trail then follows the wash back to the Garstin Trailhead where you started.

👍 Stayed in the Palm Canyon Resort across the street from the trailhead, I walked up to the trail in the morning, ended up at the Simonetta Kennett Vista Point. It was a relatively easy hike. The views along the trail was typical Palm Springs desert view. The weather in late October was nice. The only...

Murray Canyon Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 I highly highly recommend the 2-mile (one way) Murray Canyon Trail. This was the highlight of my day! Right away I was greeted by so many blooming wildflowers over the landscape. Once I reached the creek I saw many palms that stretched on for a long distance. I got to see the Seven Sisters Waterfall...

Araby Hike Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 I wasn't sure what to expect when I started hiking up the hillside. It wasn't a trail at all but rather what appeared to be a firebreak road. But it was a good workout because it was all uphill so I decided to keep climbing. I am so glad I did. Once I got to the top I could see the mountains ca...

North Lykken Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 Beautiful sunrise view at top of trail. Have to start around 45 minutes before sunrise to get full effect. Trail is almost straight up so equivalent to walking up 15 flights of stairs

Araby Trailhead
Hiking area
👍 Small parking area right off E Palm Canyon and Rim Road. Trail starts just off to your left as you look uphill. Hard to see it's signs among all the 'no trespassing ' signs. But a very enjoyable hike. Saw Roadrunner birds!

Museum Trail
Hiking area
👍👍 Really beautiful even if you go a short way up the trail. It’s not an overly challenging hike, but it’s definitely a hike and not a walk.

Frank Bogert Trailhead
Hiking area
👍👍 I went to do a short hike to see if I could get some sunset photos. I didn't get to complete the whole trail due to my timing but did catch a great sunset. It is a great trail with beautiful scenery. I didn't pass anyone else on the trail. Plenty of street parking available.

The Ramp
Hiking area
👍👍 Really good trail with different level of difficulty. Dogs allowed. We didn’t find any benches or seat place, but we found a heart. Parking easy with a lot of car, seems safety.
