Overview

In the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, Olla Wash leads to one of the more famous attractions, the Mud Palisades. The Mud Palisades resemble ornate columns in what you might see in a European gothic church. Formed over time by dripping water and wind, they provide a beautiful experience for those seeking natural wonders. Olla Wash is a perfect offroad trail for those looking to escape the more crowded parts of Anza-Borrego and who want to get up close and personal with striking landscapes.
