The Inland Empire is a center for those who love the outdoors. Snow, water and jet skiers use Lake Arrowhead, Big Bear Lake or Lake Elsinore. Hikers enjoy the San Gorgonio
Wilderness with trails reaching 11,000 feet or the deserts of the Anza Borrego State Park. Rock climbers are near famed Joshua Tree National Park. Surfers and divers are close to the Pacific Ocean. Those who love 4-wheeling are near hills and desert regions set aside for their use. Perris, Hemet and Lake Elsinore are national centers for sky diving and soaring. Auto racing fans have immediate access
to the famed California Speedway with its major NASCAR and Indy-car races. Golfers will find an extraordinary number of courses throughout the region including the beautiful resort complexes of the Palm Springs area.
