This trail is actually a sidewalk that goes around the La Quinta Cove Neighborhood. There are trails that go out into the desert, which would give you access to the surrounding hills. Keep in mind the path in these photos is not the dirt trail that goes out into the desert and into the surrounding hills. The path does have 4 water fountain stations that have a shade canopy with a bench and bike rack. However, once off the path and into the dirt trails you’re on your own, but there are usually several people out there hiking.
