Itinerary

Ride through the famous neighborhood of Palm Springs. Enjoy a private dinner and reception at the luxurious Kimpton Rowan Palm Springs, your home for the next 3 nights.
Your introduction to strikingly beautiful Joshua Tree National Park begins at the Park’s Visitor Center. Ride by huge and unusual rock formations through a winding canyon that crosses the San Andreas Fault.
Hike through Indian Canyons followed by Palm Canyon’s fan palm tree oasis after an introduction from a native Cahuilla Indian Park Ranger. You can also choose to ride to, or to and from, the start and end point of the planned hike.
Visit the village of Old Town La Quinta with Spanish influenced traditional architecture and a tasteful downtown. This evening we will shuttle to Borrego Springs.
The morning ride through Anza Borrego State Park features palm canyons, cacti, and plentiful wildlife, including bighorn sheep. Spend the evening relaxing at La Casa del Zorro where stargazing is at its finest in this “Dark Sky Community.” Join us tonight for a farewell dinner at La Casa del Zorro.
Hike along a boulder-strewn river bed to one of the region’s only native palm canyons. The contrast of the rugged desert stone and the green palm trees is striking. Boulders the size of houses cause the trail to wind back and forth. We transport you back to Palm Springs after lunch.
