Discover Hidden Oasis in Murray Canyon

Gorgeous hike trail. We only go December 25th when they charge $10 per car instead of the $12 per person. Great to take the whole family. The hike has challenging spots. You need to cross the creek back and forth 13 times (yes, I counted). There is a small waterfall on the end of it. Would not encourage this hike to anyone with knee problems or not willing to crawl up rocks in some segments. If you’re okay with that you won’t have any issues. Totally worth it.

Perfect for kids! Took my 3.5 and 6 years old and had a blast. 1 mile loop is enough length and difficulty. Barely any elevation. Visited around 2:30 and finished the loop by 3:45pm.

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.
