You'll inevitably have to pay to enter the park and enjoy the desert trails, which are well worth the effort. The security guards on weekends are good; while they don't charge during the week, they leave much to be desired. There have been robberies due to the lack of security.

A resting point if you need it, or simply a stopover when you're climbing from the yellow feather of the Desert or whatever destination you have planned as your objective, either way, the place is fine, and sometimes very crowded.

Come on in and see the cabin waiting for you... You'll find this space as part of a picturesque forest trail. Like other sites on Komoot, I'm not recommending this place, but it's definitely worth stopping by... or maybe not.

It's a well-known thoroughfare and a meeting point for cyclists heading up or down the desert routes. You've almost certainly been here, and if not, you're bound to.

The famous and obligatory Desert quesadillas! A traditional meeting place for pre-, post-, and trans-route travelers. Here, in addition to food, you'll find Pato, the local dog who controls and dominates with just his friendly presence.
