Borrego Springs: Mudcaves

Rating *****
length 5.5 mile - 2 hour 30 minutes (Return trip). Easy.
Height 850 - 1100 feet
Access From Highway S2 Mile 43 exit Palm Spring. This sandy road is best driven by a 4x4. At the marked crossing with Arroya Tapiado turn left. Road conditions may vary but in February 2010 the "road" was excellent, probably doable without the 4x4.

  • Back

  • Impressive canyon with slots and caves.

    At the point P we parked our car. Caves and slots are before and beyond this point.
    We hiked beyond. At the end we exited the canyon through a small mud canyon to the right. The exit is quite easy to do and you are rewarded with Excellent views.

    Hiking time 2 Hour 30 minutes, but you can make it as long as you want.
