Balboa Park is home to desert plants from around the world. Some are strikingly beautiful in their symmetry, while others appear alien looking. Each has found ways to survive in arid environments where most life forms are unable to thrive. This tour focuses on the clever adaptations and beauty of many fascinating cacti and succulents in the recently revitalized Kate O. Sessions Cactus Garden. Forever Balboa Park offers thematic park tours that focus on the park’s unique biodiversity and highlight the park’s horticultural wonders on the first Saturday of each month. Led by park volunteer and horticultural enthusiast Bill Edwards, the free tours leave from the Visitors Center at 10 a.m. unless otherwise indicated. Walks last 90 minutes and are typically less than 1 mile on level terrain. It is advised that potential attendees contact the Balboa Park Visitors Center prior to the scheduled walk to determine if there are any last-minute changes or cancellations to the tours.

July 5, 2025 celebrates 5 years of Almost Nakey Freedom Fest 100 years of Belmont Park, 248 years of America! BREAKING NEWS Nakey found a scroll from the founding fathers.
