William L. Kenyon Overlook


Mescal Bajada and Mine Wash from the Kenyon Overlook

This is an easy walk from the parking area beside the Yaqui Pass Road to a point where you have a nice view of the Vallecito Mountains, Mescal Bajada, and points west. You can see traffic on Highway 78 below. The view from here can be especially nice at sunrise or sunset, and on a day when the ground below is covered with yellow wildflowers.

The Kenyon Overlook Trail is another excellent short hike, close to Borrego Springs, if you want to hike for less than one hour.
