Overview

Godwin Trail follows the southern border of the Mecca Hills Wilderness and is just north of the Salton Sea. Thanks to the restless San Andreas Fault and millennia of erosion, the area provides some of the world's most unusual and beautiful geologic formations of its kind. Godwin Trail cuts a path through a badlands labyrinth, a natural maze of small, narrow, steep canyons and caves providing a sightseeing extravaganza and fun off-road driving. The trail offers off-road driving challenges with its steep climbs and narrow paths. Along the way are many other trails marked and unmarked to explore.
