About

Delete your worst photos, you’ll need room for these great ones! Ride The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway 2.5 miles along the cliffs of Chino Canyon and Mt. San Jacinto State Park. Be wowed by dazzling mountain valleys as you head towards the 2,596 meter-high Mountain Station, and take a guided walk with a volunteer.

Mount San Jacinto State Park volunteers conduct these walks Sundays from Memorial Day Weekend through Labor Day Weekend, and they’re a wonderful way to learn about the natural environment at the top of the world’s largest rotating tram car!

These walks feature a choice of two easy trails–the Desert View Trail, a 1½-mile walk beginning at 11:00 a.m. and the Long Valley Nature Trail, a ¾-mile loop beginning at 1:30 p.m. No advance registration is required and there is no charge. Don’t forget to wear flat, comfortable shoes.
