Forest Lawn Mortuaries

Spend some time outdoors and challenge yourself by climbing the Maynard Mine Trail, a rugged track that leads to the remains of an old tungsten mine that was operated by Jim Maynard during WWII. It takes time and physical endurance to trek across the 6-mile trail that overlooks the Indian Canyon, offering beautiful vistas along the way.

Wild cacti are on the loose at the Moorten Botanical Garden. The infamous Moorten family, trained desert aficionados, turned their estate into a living museum of desert lore. See thousands of desert cacti and explore exhibits and attractions that display crystals, rocks and ancient fossils when you spend a day at this famous Palm Springs historical landmark.

Kids play to learn at the Children’s Discovery Museum, where more than 50 hands-on exhibits beg to be touched, pulled apart, and put back together again. Learning centers include Today I Want to Be, How Things Work, Science Rules and more. This is the place to discover how learning can be serious fun!
