Join a park ranger on a guided hike through the Western foothills of the Franklin Mountains.
This easy 1.5 mile trail wanders through the foothill and arroyos adjacent to the Tom Mays road. Enjoy an abundance of desert plant life and keep an eye out for birds and other critters in the brush. We will meet at the visitor center, carpool to the end loop, and hike the trail one-way back to the vehicles.
