Earthquake Canyon Express Downhill Bicycle Adventure

1. Earthquake Canyon Express Downhill Bicycle Adventure

Riders will be treated to a geological extravaganza on this 20-mile (32 km) tour, descending through the heart of the San Andreas Fault zone on a paved road towards the center of grape country near Mecca. There are no cross roads, no turns, and very little traffic which makes this a relaxing sightseeing adventure. Riders will see the stark beauty of the desert as they descend a total of 1200 feet over the route. The course takes riders from the transition zone between the Colorado and Mojave Desert, winds its way through the narrow canyon walls of Box Canyon and finishes with spectacular views of the Salton Sea, Mt. San Jacinto, the All-American Canal, and the agriculture of the eastern Coachella Valley. Our guide will follow behind the group in a chase vehicle to ensure they are provided support when needed.

Richmond was an excellent guide, he was well prepared and extremely knowledgeable. He had visual aides to help explain certain items and was able to read his audience to make sure we all had an enjoyable and interesting time and would definitely recommend him to anyone. His good sense of humour added to his charm.

Amazing! Never thought I could get to the mills sooo close! Make sure you watch the into video - it will answer many questions you may have! Download the app and use it with your headsets as it tends to stop when phone screen goes off..

This audio tour is fantastic. It automatically gave us information as we drive through the park. The information was interesting. Directions are also given. Highly recommend for first time visitors to Joshua Tree.

This audio tour was full of fascinating facts along with interesting tales of the Wild West. We learned a lot and were kept entertained. We hope to find more of these for other National parks.

Great tour with interesting facts. You can choose to do it all or just a smaller portion of the tour. No problems with audio as we did all the download prior to driving into the park.
