Join us for a fun hike at Hawk's Nest, Desert Tortoise, and Dixie Mountain Loop!

This hike is 5.8 miles long and takes about 3 hours to finish. We will climb about 810 feet, so be ready for some uphill walking. The trail has rocky paths and pretty desert views. You may see cool plants, birds, or even a lizard along the way!

Please bring plenty of water and wear good hiking shoes. The trail can be rocky, so sturdy shoes will help keep your feet safe. Trekking poles can also be helpful on the hills.

For the most accurate directions, please click on the map in the “location” section. Sometimes if you copy and paste the address, it may not take you to the right spot.

Plan to arrive 15–20 minutes early. Parking can change depending on how busy the trail is that day.

We can’t wait to hike with you! 🌵🥾
