This park is huge and has many different hiking pathes in a variety of difficulties. Any fitness level can walk at least one or two of the trails. The view is magnificant and you must come here if you visit Palms Springs. To get up to the top of the montain you can use the tram way that takes you there. Once on top there is a ranger station with maps, snacks, gifts and a bathroom. Plan between two and six hours, depending on how long you want to go hiking.
