   The Cap Homme/Ralph Adams Park in Palm Desert, California is just three miles, and less than a 10-minute drive, from Rancho Mirage. Located in the southern part of the city, Adams Park is a 27-acre space with multi-use trails, an off-leash dog area, and a great place for having a picnic. The off-leash area is at the base of the trails, and it is only surrounded by some low wooden bars, so if your dog is a high jumper or an expert escape artist, it may be best to keep them on a leash. Dogs are required to be leashed on the walking trail, and some visitors note it is quite a rigorous hike.
