Super easy to get to from Rancho Mirage. Well organized parking and tram loading.(I was there as soon as they opened in the morning.) the tram ride to the top was fairly short and very scenic. However, it might be a bit disconcerting if you’re uncomfortable with heights. At the top, there’s a café. lounge viewing points, static displays and Park Rangers to help out with your visit. Once you go outside, you’re at the trailhead for a couple easy but worthwhile trails and some much longer ones that I didn’t have the time to take. It is much cooler at the top of the hill than down in the valley -approximately 30° f difference. The scenery from up there is fantastic. The forest is beautiful highly recommend this as a way to occupy a morning or a full day.
