The Fortynine Palms Oasis Trail begins from Canyon Road four miles west of Twentynine Palms. From the trailhead this route leads one and a half miles ascending slightly then descending into Fortynine Palms Canyon. The oasis, and trail terminus, lies at a confluence in the canyon. The site is lush with stands of fan palms and pools of water. The flora surrounding this route and destination is very fragile, so walk carefully through this terrain.
