Palm Desert Cross Hike Guide

Here’s the pavilion and water fountain.

Look for the gap in the fence at the far end of the parking lot, and walk straight through along the well-worn path to the hillside.

From the park you’ll climb up along the ridge to reach the cross.

There’s a few dips, but otherwise it’s a straight up and straight down affair. Also note that there is no shade on the hike.

There are handy trail signs along the way. Look for ‘The Cross Loop.’

When you get to the park entrance and sign, make the right and drive down to the parking area.
