The Bat Buttes
I know most can't do the Sunday hike since the road is so difficult to get to the hiking trail. So I have a great hike and fun and funky place for lunch for Saturday.
*. 3.5 miles round trip and
*. 300ft elevation gain.
*. Easy Hike
*. Easy Parking
* From Del Taco In Coachella to the Bat Buttes is a 35 minute drive.

Mid day will be 86 but our hike should be mid 70s and start cooler and end in 70s when we finish the hike
The Bat Buttes
There is a hill range that shows the ancient shoreline of Lake Cahuilla. The clay and sand stone hills have small caves that were formed by wind and waves when the lake existed.
The Bat Buttes are close to Salton Sea.
The hike is easy but there is some soft sand in places.
The Ski
They have about 5 items on their menu which includes a burger, cheeseburger, poblano burger, grilled cheese, brisket sandwich, fries and a few pies. All of these menu items are in a small chalkboard at their bar. The food is made fresh. Mac and Cheese and Fries are about it for Vegetarians
