Review:

Borrego Palm Canyon is another amazing surprise in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, an oasis of the last remaining groves of native California palms on the planet. The trail down Palm Canyon to see the palms is a relatively easy; a 3-mile trip if you are prepared to hop over a lot of boulders, cross a stream running down the canyon, and climb some stairs. All around you are native desert plants and fascinating geological features, but the highlight of this interesting hike are the palms, massive, natural, and clumped together like a force of nature. In contrast to the surrounding desert vegetation, they look very much like they belong.
