Itinerary description


More Anza Borrego Hiking


On Hwy S2 close to Mile 46, Indian Gorge take the dirt road heading west. How far you want to drive in a regular car is up to you. The road is sandy with some rocks. I have seen cars make it up to the trail head, so it's possible sometimes. The trail heads to the right into the canyon. 1/2 March 2009 there where lots of wild flowers and a lot of cacti where blooming. A hike in a wash with some rocks to step over. Round trip 2 Hours from the trail head.
