You definitely need a vehicle with high clearance or 4 wheel drive. It was an interesting ride getting to our destination but once there it was breathtaking, amazing, and just inspiring. All this beauty created by wind, water, and time.

Coyote Canyon (and the road leading to it) is a hidden gem of #SuperBloom. My husband and I took our dog (a large breed) on our Super Bloom Trip in the 3rd weekend of March 2019. It was far better than Anza Borrego Desert State Park. Too many people, too many dogs and not enough wildflowers to boot. You will find gorgeous Super Bloom by the long stretch of road to Coyote Canyon entrance area. Each field seemed to have different types of wildflowers and no poppies. I found it was interesting. They were stunning regardless Once you enter Coyote Canyon on drive into the dirt road you are going to see another sets of wildflowers and cactus blooms. Be careful when you try to get close to the flower patches. There were a few balls of cactus rolling about. I got one of those stuck on the seam of my boot (I know! I thought I was protected.????) I carefully try to remove it by hand. Bad move. I got my finger tip stung bad. That little thorny thing was evil! Well, all that is now a good memory. Happy trail! It was loads of fun!!

This is a wonderful campground nestled next to the mountains with a half mile trail to the visitor center and a 3 mile round trip trail up the canyon on the Borrego Palm Canyon trail to the water falls and Bighorn Sheep! This desert really grows on you with fauna and flora all around and scheduled naturalist walks and talks. Jackrabbits, roadrunners and Bighorn sheep if you can find them. This is a great back to nature experience. If you go in February or March after a good season of precipitation you may see the super bloom of desert flowers. A sight to behold!

Wow open during the virus. Nice bathrooms and very helpful staff. Entry in back with parking. Look around and asked questions. Found out why sculptures were blocked off entry from the highway. It seems that the current virus warnings by the Governor states that these types of exhibits must be cleaned constantly. This means that they are not available to most people by driving directly in the unpaved desert (car trails) Sculptures in front and in rear parking area to include other information. Leave a donation to help these great folks.
