Overview

Jasper Trail is a lesser-known off-road trail on the western edge of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. For those planning an overland expedition in Anza-Borrego, Jasper Trail offers a great connecting route between established campsites at Culp Valley Campground in the north and Tamarisk Grove Campground in the south, as well as numerous other connections to camping locations along the way. The trail also makes for a fantastic day trip, and can provide a more challenging alternative to Grapevine Canyon Road. The route features interesting rock formations of stacks or piles of large boulders, high-country desert vegetation, and high-altitude vistas as you descend into the bowl of the Anza-Borrego desert.
