Camping Borrego

Anza Borrego Desert State Park & Borrego Springs Campground

Anza Borrego Desert is the largest of the California State Parks. Borrego Palm Canyon Campground is the official name of this popular palm oasis & developed campground located very close to Borrego Springs CA. Hike or bike to town. There is also a private RV Park named Palm Canyon Resort in town, just to confuse you. Desert wildflowers blooms, popular hiking & biking trails, plus mud caves & slot canyons draw plenty visitors here, mostly in the winter months. Summer high temps exceed 90 degrees for months at a time.
There are hundreds of miles of dirt roads to explore, and one could easily spend every weekend for a full year, checking out all there is to see in this vast desert, where elevations range from near sea level to 5000′ peaks.

Borrego Desert Campgrounds

camp

Let us also remind you that this is the best place to camp in SoCal for primitive car camping (camping outside of a developed campground). Super secluded, darkest skies, free and always located on the back roads. 4×4 is not required in all areas, so there are plenty options. Blair Valley or Coyote Canyon Gardens are popular camp spots.
