Things To Do
Salvation Mountain
Salvation Mountain is neat the Salton Sea in Niland, California, about an hour and a half drive southeast of Palm Springs, but it is an interesting site to see! It is Leonard’s tribute to God and his gift to the world with its simple yet powerful message: “God is Love.” The art piece includes flowers, trees, waterfalls, suns, bluebirds, and many other fascinating and colorful objects. It’s 50-foot height and 150-foot breadth is made totally of local adobe local clay and donated paint. It’s truly unique on the United States and probably the world.
Joshua Tree National Park
Joshua Tree is about 30 miles from Palm Springs and Desert Hot Springs. The park is named for the Joshua trees (Yucca brevifolia) native to the Mojave Desert. It’s a great spot for a drive or a hike. Plan at least a half day for exploring
Palm Springs Aerial Tramway
The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway is the largest rotating aerial tramway in the world! It has a beautiful view as you go up to Mt. San Jacinto State Park
Downtown Palm Springs
Downtown Palm Springs is about 20 minute drive from the wedding site. There are a lot of shops, great restaurants, and bikes rentals for exploring the downtown area. It is pedestrian friendly.
