It’s a great experience close to downtown Rancho Mirage. \nOverview: This moderate hike is generally suitable for novice hikers who want a bit of a challenge. The terrain will involve a moderate incline and may have some steeper sections. \nTime: 8:30AM – 11:30AM \nDifficulty: Moderate; For more information about the Difficulty Rating: Shenandoah Hiking Difficulty Scale \nDistance: 3.25 miles \nElevation Gain: 380 feet (equals 38 flights of stairs) \nTerrain & Obstacles: The trail follows a sandy wash\, with several rocky sections requiring high step-ups and occasional hand-assisted rock scrambling to navigate the canyon floor.
