Granite Mountain is a popular attraction at the western border of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, located next to the mountainous Cleveland National Forest. The mountain rises to an elevation of 2,600 feet above Blair Valley and is accessible via several popular hiking routes, including a trailhead that embarks from Highway S2. The predominantly Class 1 route reaches Class 2 difficulty at several points along the route due to uncleared portions. Along the hike, visitors can view a wide variety of native flora and fauna, including mountain lions, deer, and rattlesnakes that call the region home.
