Grab your hiking boots and get ready to explore the wild side of the Living Desert!
Join us for an exclusive members-only hike through our stunning nature preserve — where desert landscapes, hidden trails, and breathtaking views await.
Choose your own adventure:
1.5-Mile Adventure Loop: Wander through the desert’s hidden gems as you learn to spot native plants and uncover the secrets of invasive species—and how to protect our ecosystem.
5-Mile Wilderness Loop: Embark on a thrilling 3-mile climb to panoramic views of the Coachella Valley, then descend 2 miles back to the valley floor, surrounded by rugged beauty and desert serenity. (Please note: this trail is listed as “Hard” on the All-Trails app).
Led by the Membership Team, this is your chance to connect with nature, learn something new, and experience the preserve like never before.
Please note: Participants will need to bring hiking shoes and water. Also to prepare, we recommend you to hydrate the day prior.
