ROUND VALLEY TO HIDDEN LAKE VIA WILLOW CREEK TRAIL (HIGH TRAIL)
The Round Valley Loop is an excellent day hike encompassing much of the valley between the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway and Mount San Jacinto. Hiking the loop in a counter-clockwise direction takes one up a steady climb along creek to Round Valley. It then travels along the southern rim of the valley with great views of Mt. San Jacinto. Going counter-clockwise avoids the crowds and in rainy seasons Hidden Lake is amazing. Picture of Lake is from epic February 14th, 2019, rainfall. Many have only seen this lake as a dry bed but CVHC hiker Laurie L. shared this photo with us to prove it really can be a lake!
5 Miles with elevation gain of 1000 ft.
