Description

Like most of the trails in the Coachella Valley, this one is rocky and very hot. It has a good 3.5-mile climb with 1,500 ft of elevation gained. However, the views from the top make the climb well worth the effort.

There are a couple of short branches off of the main trail during the first half of the run that are worth exploring. Take Jefferson Street to the La Quinta Cove to Lake Cahuilla Trail that will bring you back to the start.

Nice trail for a run. Ran up 3.5 miles and then reversed the route. Parked at the Cove parking area. Trail is well marked and the views are great. 7mi
