White Tank Mountain Regional Park

White Tank Mountain Regional Park is a great place my family and I frequently visit. There are over 30 miles of trails ranging from .9 miles to 7.9 miles. There are many trails extremely well maintained some of them are wheel chair accessible (waterfall).

The trails are multi-use trails with the exception of Waterfall Trail and The Short Black Rock Trail (My family’s favorite trails). These two trails are extremely achievable for hikers of any level and together are about 2.2 miles. Waterfall Trail has 5/10 of a mile that is barrier-free and 1/10 of a mile handicap accessible.

The beautiful desert is the feature of White Tank Mountain Regional Park that keeps my family coming back for more. The pristine nature has many different cactus only viewable in this region of the United States and viewable in some areas of Mexico. White Tank Mountain Regional Park offers beautiful desert plant adaptions as well as desert animals.

No matter what your outdoor activity—hiking, biking, camping, or horseback riding—white tank mountains will fill your needs. This fun family mountain park is great for spending the morning, day, or camping for weeks in the desert. My family and I recommend this park and hope you enjoy this beautiful desert park as much as we do.
