리버사이드 카운티 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

To me, this rock looks like a flower or the flame of the Olympic torch :)

Fantastic 360° views from the summit dome in good visibility. In January, the summit was very windy (it's worth considering this when planning your clothing). There's virtually no shade on the trail – something to consider in summer. The trail is clear and not too demanding.

Looks good

Good to walk and not too long. But take water with you. The panorama really impressed me. One of the most beautiful places ever.

Looking west from the summit you can see across Pinto Basin to Joshua Tree National Park. Indeed, Ryan Mountain has its own display of unique desert flora. The trail starts flat and becomes more steep as you climb, offering spectacular panoramic views and plenty of space to explore at the summit.

The Hidden Valley Trail is a one-mile loop that offers meander through large rock formations, perfect for families and rock scrambling. Along the trail, you’ll find educational signs about local plants and animals, and you can spot "Cow Rock,"  a cow-shaped formation on the valley wall. The trail is easy but includes stairs and rock steps at the start and end. It’s a popular hike, so arriving early, especially on weekends, is recommended. The trail has little shade and bad cell service.
