Nice trails for the kids and dog with great weather year round. Parking during apple-picking season and when it snows a bit difficult.

[View] 10 minutes drive, a short highway, you come to this place, you can picnic in the flowing water of the desert and the amazing scenery of the desert mountains, you can hike on many roads, [Fun] I like the spring here, All desert plants are lush, but it is a nice walk at any time, although it can be very hot in summer (they close here when the fire danger is particularly high), and you can find a lot of wildlife here including big horns, bobcats, rabbits and many birds.

We stopped at Big Morongo Canyon Preserve on our way to Joshua Tree National Park. We didn't have much time so we only walked The Marsh Trail. It was a very relaxing boardwalk trail under a tree canopy and finishing in the open along a border of large palm trees native the California. Best of all, it was free and had restrooms.

Indian Canyons are located about 5 miles south of downtown Palm Springs. There is a $9 charge to enter which gives you access to 3 nice hikes and a gift shop. The featured hike is Palm Canyon and it is beautiful. The total hike is about 9 miles but the first 2 miles are the what is done by most visitors and are mostly in the shade of hundreds of palm trees. The other two hikes are also nice. If you have never experienced hiking through a grove of palms this will be a great experience for you.

【View】Easy scenic trail walk/hike! It was a very easy adventure into the desert! The palm trees were beautiful and you could see them up close. [Fun] You can stroll around the road a little, or travel far to the mountains to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the valley, or there are many opportunities to shoot wild flowers, depending on time. Highly recommended!

Volcan Mountain is a moderate hike with great views from the top. We would have liked to hike further but the trail to the north was closed. It was also moderately busy which made parking a little bit challenging.
