The Perfect Palm Springs Spring Day

Day One: Desert Allure & Magic Hour Glow

Morning – Rise to the Sky
Begin the day at the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. In no time at all, you will go from desert floor to alpine forest. The panoramic views are incredible and stretch across the entire Coachella Valley. You can even sneak in a scenic hike among the pine trees before heading back down the mountain.

Mid-Century Dreams
If you are a lover of mid-century modern design, Palm Springs is the place to admire the iconic architecture. Visit neighborhoods like Vista Las Palmas or Twin Palms to view some of the city’s most photogenic homes.

Poolside Perfection
Lounging poolside is what Palm Springs does best. Grab a lounge chair, a good book and a refreshing cocktail and live like a local. Spring weather is warm, sunny and near perfect for sneaking in some necessary relaxation.

Desert Sunsets
Pure glowy magic happens as the sun begins to dip behind the San Jacinto Mountains. The sky turns shades of orange, indigo and magenta for a picture-perfect snapshot.
