Though annual wildflowers are past their peak at lower elevations in and around Borrego Springs, there are still plenty of blooming cacti, shrubs, and trees to be found in Anza-Borrego! Parking areas on weekends fill up by early morning! Day Use Parking Fees: developed campground areas $10

If you would like to receive updates next spring, as different wildflowers start coming into bloom, we suggest that you check back here, or join the email list of our nonprofit partner, Anza-Borrego Foundation.

You can also call our Wildflower Hotline at 760-767-4684.
