Elephant Trees Trail is a trail within Anza-Borrego Desert State Park that showcases the rare bursera microphylla plant, commonly known as the elephant tree. The tree is named for its swollen trunk and was at one time thought to be the only of its kind in the United States. Today, several stands of elephant trees have been found throughout Baja California and Arizona's Gila Range at sites such as the Santa Rosa Mountains, Bisnaga Alta Wash, and In-Ko-Pah Gorge. An interpretive trail offers views of the iconic trees from a trailhead that embarks from Split Mountain Road and traverses approximately 1.1 miles. 13 interpretive displays are offered along the route, explaining the tree's biological and cultural significance.
