San Andreas Fault Adventure

The Faultline Express

Make your way through some of the most tortured and incredible natural formations with the Faultline Express San Andrea's Fault Jeep Tour near Palm Springs. The land along the San Andreas fault is quite unlike any other in the world, and you'll see for yourself how the landscape has been twisted, streched, bent, and tossed about by the power of the plates that meet at the San Andreas Fault.

You'll see entire mountains that have been shoved up by the forces, creating incredible box and slot canyons, and more, all while you learn about how the power of the earthquakes and how they forge and shape the earth. A professional, knowledgeable naturalist will be your guide for the trip, and will share their knowledge of the fault, geology, flora and fauna with you.
