Grab your hiking poles and join George, Friends volunteer docent, to hike up the Shannon Trail. The trail follows a wash before ascending the barren hills to an overlook atop a rocky high point. Along the way you will learn about the National Monument, some of the colorful local history of Palm Springs and the Coachella Valley. This hike is rated moderate to strenuous with an elevation gain of 800 feet and the trail is well maintained.
Due to public health regulations, we suggest you wear a mask and practice social distancing. Must wear a mask at the trailhead.
RSVP is required and you must bring your ticket with you for check-in at 7:45 AM. Ticket reservations begin 14 days prior to the event. Sorry, no dogs allowed.
A suggested tax-deductible donation of $5.00 per person is appreciated and encouraged to support our volunteer programs.
