Palm Springs Tram to Idyllwild

11/10/22

There are a couple trails to the top from lower elevations but they’ll probably take you all day. You can bring backpack and climbing gear with you on the tram. Most people just do day hikes close to the tram station. But you can get some major miles in. Or do some bouldering not too far from the tram The tram itself is very dramatic. You’ll see just how high up you are. There are food options at the top incase you forget your Muncie crunchies

Mount San Jacinto via Devil's Slide

Mt. San Jacinto is the second tallest peak in Southern California at 10,834’. Although this route requires a fair amount of work, the effort is more than rewarded by the expansive views, forest, meadows, and dramatic topography. You will need an Adventure Pass ($5/day) to park at Humber Park, as well as a hiking permit to hike in the San Jacinto Wilderness. Both can be picked up at the Ranger ...
