Lovely trails, scenery, lots to see. Bring water and plan appropriately for the heat.

Great views of the desert and some beautiful desert palms. A bit scary to leave the park in the parking area. its isolated and good for thiefs

***The portion of trail at the entrance into the oasis is a scramble. The entire area was washed out. I noticed after I decided not to scramble up that it does lead to the upper portion is ok at entry/exit section near the ridge. It doesnt snake around like it did with some shade.This is probably one of the best areas in the desert (Palm Springs area) to get away.Correct me if Im wrong but the entire location is on the San Andreas Fault. The terrain varies from moon surface, oasis, canyons, run off, & palm courts among other sections. Also a native fish at the ponds Ive yet to visit.An equestrian area but Ive only seen a volunteer with a horse once after coming here for the last 15+ years.So many things to see when there. Mainly the birds. Apparently catching insects there are a thing. The oasis at the right time is awesome.

A great hike to take in the Coachella Valley Preserve. A little long at about 5 to 6 miles round trip but well worth it. The Pushwalla Palms is a very large grouping of palms and an awesome sight to see and experience. Well worth the hike into the isolated desert wilderness.

Great trail, lots of beautiful views and great for photos!

A Hiking We Will Go - Today, we hiked Pushawalla Palms. It’s part of a 17,000 acre preserve that is home to groves of desert fan palms nourished by water from the San Andreas fault. It’s also where you can see the rare Coachella Valley fringe-toed lizard. The 4.2 mile loop was very scenic with lots of opportunities for pictures. It took about two hours to complete the hike going at a moderate pace. Helpful Hints: Be sure to take water and snacks. We took our hike in January and were happy we packed a light jacket.

Really cool hikes and views of the Coachella Valley and Palm Springs. We watched the sun go down, heard coyotes howling, and saw a roadrunner and lots of other birds, which was wonderful.

The trail is nice, but the oasis at the end is more interesting. Id recommend the Hidden Palms trail to come back with different views.

Good experience

Hot hike, but well worth it for the views!

Great hike

I love hiking the Coachella Valley this was a good one too. Too bad the chemistry in the group was a little weird

Love the desert!
