Indian Canyons preserves four beautiful historic canyons in Palm Springs, known as one of the region's top natural attractions throughout the year. The site, which is located on Agua Caliente Cahuilla tribal lands on the city's western end, is best known as the site of the delightful Tahquitz Canyon, which was used as the filming location for the entrance to Shangri-La in the classic feature film Lost Horizon. Visitors can explore the canyon as part of guided hikes or trek on their own to its stunning 60-foot waterfall. 15-mile Palm Canyon showcases breathtaking flora and fauna, including California fan palm trees, while Andreas Canyon is home to over 150 species of plants and can be explored via a popular scenic foot trail. Murray Canyon is home to endangered Peninsular bighorn sheep, mule deer, and Least Bells Vireo birds. Lovely visitor amenities include the Palm Springs Spa Hotel and Mineral Springs, which are home to hot springs believed to have healing properties.
