The Randall Henderson Loop Trail, located in Palm Desert, California, is a 2.67-mile loop trail that offers a moderate level of difficulty. The trail is well-marked and primarily used for hiking, walking, and nature trips. It features a variety of desert flora and fauna, including cacti, desert shrubs, and local wildlife. The trail also offers panoramic views of the Coachella Valley and the surrounding mountains. The trail begins at the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument Visitor Center. It gradually ascends, providing hikers with a steady, manageable incline. The trail is well-maintained and suitable for hikers of all skill levels. Hikers are advised to bring plenty of water, as the desert climate can be hot and dry. The trail is open year-round, but the best time to hike is during the cooler months of fall and winter.
