Course was lush and golf play management is a must! Had a great time enjoying each hole with views everywhere. Hard pin placements made putts challenging.

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.

Anza-Borrego Desert State Park

The largest state park in California is home to amazing flowers and plants which bloom in the early spring.

Reviewed By LoveParkCityUtah

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!

Hellhole Canyon Trail

Reviewed By DDB51 - Poway, United States

My husband and I enjoyed a 7 mile hike just past Maiden Hair Falls and back. The trail starts slow and easy then increases in difficulty as you head up into the canyon. The last mile or so requires climbing up and down some large and small boulders. One has to "follow one's nose" as there are no trail markers. Take water and snacks. I would recommend a hat, sunglasses, and hiking boots. We are in our late 60's and reasonably fit. We had no problems. At whatever age, a moderate degree of fitness is required to make it to (and past the falls). There is plenty of parking and two vault toilets at the site. No fees.

Borrego Palm Canyon Nature Trail

Reviewed By cindywV3766SN - Vista, United States

Perfect Fall day for a hike up to the palms. Hiking thru the sand and over rocks plus a creek crossing with running water was great to see. Towards the top you hike among the boulders to reach the palms. Take water to stay dehydrated. Was 60's in December and partly sunny. Had a picnic after our 2 hour hike. There are 2 open air flash toilets below the trail.
