3.5 Miles Beginning Elevation 900' Strenuous With an elevation gain of 1,400' This trail takes you to the top of Murray Hill ( the photo above was taken near Thousand Palms ) with a spectacular 360 degree view of the Coachella Valley and Little San Bernardino Mountains. The trail can be reached by equestrians and hikers via the Wildhorse Trail or from the top of the Eagle Canyon Trail. To reach the Wildhorse Trail you can follow the directions for the Garstin Trail and follow the fork to the right down into the valley seen from the top of the Garstin. From there just follow the Trailhead signs that lead you to the Wildhorse, and then the Clara Burgess Trail. This is one very rewarding hike as you will have a beautiful view of the Coachella Valley from the top of Murray hill.
Above photo is the top of Murray Hill taken from trail ( when you see this you're almost there . . . )
