Joshua Tree Hike and Stargaze - SBC

November 15, 2025
8:00am - 8:00pm
Joshua Tree National Park

  

Join us for an exciting day of exploration and adventure in the stunning landscapes of Joshua Tree National Park! This trip is perfect for both beginners and seasoned outdoor enthusiasts, offering a blend of sightseeing, and hiking, along with a chance to explore the unique charm of Downtown Joshua Tree. 

We'll start the day bright and early at the Adventure Center, where our leaders will ensure all gear and food are prepped for the day. After a brief check-in, participants will load into the van, and we'll head out on a scenic drive to Joshua Tree. 

Our first stop will be Downtown Joshua Tree (DTJT) and the Joshua Tree Visitor Center. Participants can choose to explore the eclectic shops and local art of DTJT or spend time learning about the park’s ecosystem at the Visitor Center. This will be a great opportunity to pick up souvenirs, grab a coffee, or simply soak in the vibrant desert atmosphere. 

Afterward, we will continue to Hidden Valley Trail, for some insights into the park's natural history. We’ll then explore one of the park’s most popular trails, Lost Horse Mine. 

As the afternoon winds down, we'll visit Keys View, a scenic overlook offering breathtaking views of the Coachella Valley. We’ll take time to snap photos and soak in the beauty before heading back to CSUSB
