Located among the soaring San Jacinto Mountains which tower over the Sonora Desert near Idyllwild, Mount San Jacinto State Park offers visitors a landscape of impressive contrasts. You can bring along your RV or trailer to one of two drive-in campgrounds (there are also primitive campsites and hike-and-bike campsites) where you can set up camp and enjoy an exceptional outdoor experience. You can get a wonderful overview of the beautiful landscape by riding the aerial tramway from Palm Springs or by driving along the scenic roads. Hiking, horse-back riding, mountain biking and guided tours are among the most popular activities and the park offers great wildlife watching and photographic opportunities.
