Returning to Palm Springs, after more than 20 years, was a unforgettable and splendid experience! The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, the world’s largest rotating tram car, travels over two-and-one-half miles along the breathtaking cliffs of Chino Canyon. It is a ten-minute journey, tram cars rotate slowly, allowing spectacular vistas of the valley below. At the Mountain Station, you will find two very good restaurants, observation decks, natural history museum, gift shop and awesome trails! (over 50 miles of them!) .

If you are in a hurry, you can see Palm Canyon from the parking area. There is a little gift shop in the parking lot next to the trail head. Hiking down into the canyon is fun too, but the trail is a little steep, so wear good walking or hiking shoes.

Considered sacred to the Cahuilla Indians and of historical importance to scientists and nature lovers, these canyons provide a range of outdoor recreational activities for visitors.
For an incredible desert experience, visit the Agua Caliente Indian Canyons -- especially Murray Canyon, Palm Canyon and Andreas Canyon. Great views and wonderful hiking

The creosote bush is one of the interesting desert plants to find as you explore this part of the California desert.
A few days ago we hiked up this trail for the first part, which is an area with stunning views of the Indian Canyon valley! It was far too hot (82+) and we were not prepared (running shoes, no poles and not enough water. Today we managed to go well past that to the area that connects to desert riders park. Keep right to have this shortened version of a spectacular hike! This version will have to walk about a mile through the neighborhood just FYI. This is a moderate to difficult hike. Bring your poles, lots of water and some snacks, and good hiking boots that support your ankles. There are many rocks during parts of the trail so hi top hiking boots are worth bringing (plus good socks of course). For the view you make also run into some iguana like animals, geckos and hares. Amazing. Depending on your physical ability, it can take 90 minutes to 2 hours. Amazing views and worth the drive. Bring your phone or camera as the pictures are stunning.

Located in the Indian Canyons, this trail passes some uniquely amazing desert vegetation, such as the yellow creosote flowers.
We hiked. It was fun. There were also people coming with horses as well. We preferred hiking. Every time we passed an oasis, we had to cross the water. Sometimes it was quite funny. We cross at least several oasis. Later we had to climb a mountain and we didn't see the seven sisters. They were there. We had to go at the left side and we could see the waterfalls. P.S. We had to come back through the oasis. We had fun!
