Fun Facts

This trail leads you to a secret desert oasis with a seasonal waterfall and lush greenery, a rare sight in the arid landscape of Borrego Springs.

The trail is dotted with fascinating desert plants like the ocotillo and the rare elephant tree, which can survive extreme drought conditions.

Keep an eye out for the elusive bighorn sheep, a symbol of the Anza-Borrego Desert, often seen scaling the rugged canyon walls.

The trail passes through areas once inhabited by the Kumeyaay people, who left behind fascinating rock art and artifacts.

Thanks to its remote location, the trail offers some of the clearest night skies, perfect for spotting constellations and shooting stars.
