All about Palm Desert
Palm Desert is overshadowed by its glitzier cousin to the west, Palm Springs, and locals and visitors in the know are probably just fine with that. Home to upscale shopping and fine dining and surrounded by the dramatic desert landscape that distinguishes the Coachella Valley, Palm Desert is a calm oasis. Itās not uncommon to see a golf cart ā street legal here ā in someoneās driveway instead of a car. The country club set lives at a slower pace, tooling around to the many marquee golf courses the city has to offer or heading to the Shops on El Paseo for luxury retail therapy. But donāt think Palm Desert is only for upscale tastes ā itās also known for its natural beauty in the form of wildflower blooms and desert gardens.
What are the top things to do in Palm Desert?
Bump and Grind Trail
This trailās former name was the more demure Mirage Trail, but the descriptive moniker won out, probably because this moderate hike into the mountains will get your heart rate up as you climb 523 feet. Your three-mile trek starts unceremoniously behind the Desert Crossing Shopping Center, where youāll enter the trail on Painters Path ā but you leave civilization behind as you hike further on. Along the way youāll be rewarded with sweeping views of the Coachella Valley floor and, during spring, wildflowers.
Desert Willow Golf Course
This picturesque municipal course is home to two 18-hole golf courses, Firecliff and Mountain View. A respected golf architect, known for his environmentally friendly approach, designed both, and the grounds are landscaped with native plants and fed with reclaimed water. Lots of bunkers make the courses challenging while also reducing the need for water. So no matter how well you play, you can take some solace in having shown respect for the local terrain.
Faye Sarkowsky Sculpture Garden
This free outdoor sculpture garden, located in the Eric Johnson Memorial Gardens at the Palm Springs Art Museum in Palm Desert, features artists from the museumās permanent collection in a beautifully landscaped desert oasis.
