Itinerary description


More Anza Borrego Hiking


On the S2 Mile 26/27 turn on the dirt road (oriflamme canyon rd). You need an AWD for this road. About 3 miles to the parking and the trail head.
An unmarked trail heads up along the stream. The trail is sometimes clear and on other parts it is completely gone. No shorts and wear a hat because you sometimes have to navigate trough heavy vegetation, but mostly not of the stingy kind. You have to cross the stream numerous times. A pleasantly different (a lot greener) and cool hike. 2.25 Hours Round trip
