Murray Canyon Trail

One of the most scenic trails I've ever been to. Highly recommended, expect to get your feet wet, as you will be crossing many different streams, some you would have to step in the water. I wore waterproof hiking boots and it was perfect. We hiked Murray trail and from the car the whole trip was 4,5 miles but it's mostly flat so pretty easy. I also recommend coming early, this trail is very popular so it gets kind of crowded. We started at 8:30 and on the way back there were tons of upcoming hikers. Loved the trail overall, will come back!

Wow! This is a different kind of hike. You won’t get to a peak with a grand vista, but the journey through the canyon with the variety of rock formations and palm groves was spectacular. There are also some nice views into the valley along the way. I classify this as an easy to moderate hike. There are a few technical parts for those that have balance issues (crossing water on rocks and climbing over some rock formations). There is a $12 fee per person to enter the reservation, but it was worth it.

Great trek through Palm oases to a waterfall. Trail crosses over small creeks a number of times. This can be a bit challenging if you don't have good footwear so be sure to bring trail shoes or hiking boots.

Beautiful hike. Very long though. Water shoes are a must! So glad I brought mine! Start early, park opens at 8am. I will say there is horse poop everywhere because horses are allowed for some reason? So it stinks like poop & kinda ruins the hike.

Fantastic hike - AllTrails recommended for the two mile out and back. The adjacent Andreas Canyon trail head had porta potty bathrooms with a water station to wash afterwards, plus picnic tables. There is parking available at this trail head, too. The initial hike through the open scrub desert was less compelling but once you enter into the canyon proper - amazing and beautiful..! Only one section was remotely technical with some moderate caution to ascend and descent but there were some carved stone steps. Make sure you bring enough water..!

This place is magical! We ended up doing Murray Canyon Trail to seven sisters falls and then looped up another trail and back down towards the parking lot. It was a little over 3 miles round trip. It was mostly easy except for a small spot. Make sure to bring water to the canyons as there is no where to fill up. Wear water shoes too!

Beautiful canyon, a bit challenging hike, total 4 miles from the parking area, too bad they open the gates at 8am, today the temperature was 100 degrees, would be better to start the hike earlier, Be prepared for the 12.00 per person fee, Once at the trailhead there are picnic tables and clean restrooms, plenty of parking. The hike itself is really nice, takes you thru the desert Oasis, Make sure to bring plenty of water and food or snacks, lots of places to have a dip in the river, the water temperature was perfect. The end of the trail is the Seven Sisters Falls, not really big waterfalls, but this is expected as you are in the middle of the desert.

Definitely a must hike. I visited in mid January the weather was good. The Murray hike in Palm Springs is really beautiful. The hike is through oasis which is around total 4.5 miles. Should start early around 8-10 am. The entrance fee for Indian canyon is $9 per adult.
