Welcome to the Borrego Palm Canyon Nature Trail at Anza-Borrego Desert State Park

Walk one and one half miles to a view of a lush oasis deep in the canyon. Allow at least two hours and bring plenty of water.

All life in the desert revolves around water, as you will discover along this self-guided trail. If you're prepared for some rocky ground and little shade, you're ready to enjoy the subtle beauties of this desert trek. Please do your best to stay on the established trail.

*Please note: the palm grove is closed to allow for recovery of the palms and other vegetation. Please stay out of the grove and let the palms come back!
