About this spot

Filers Hole

The Filers Hole is an interesting spot within the Salton Sea watershed located in California. It is a sinkhole which was created when an underground river collapsed, leaving behind a giant cavity. The hole is approximately 60 feet deep and 500 feet wide and is now filled with brackish water. It is the deepest point in the nearby Imperial Valley. The Filers Hole is a popular spot for tourists and adventurers who are exploring the Salton Sea area. One of the reasons to visit the Filers Hole is to see the unique geological formations that are characteristic of the area. The hole is surrounded by cliffs that are made up of different types of rock formations, which are visually stunning. Visitors can also take a dip and swim in the warm waters of the hole, which is a unique experience.

Another reason to visit the Filers Hole is to observe the diverse wildlife that thrives in the area. Since the Salton Sea is a crucial stopover point on the Pacific Flyway, a major North American migratory bird route, the Filers Hole is an excellent spot for birdwatchers who can spot various species of birds that are common to the area. Other wildlife that can be seen in the area includes coyotes, bobcats, and jackrabbits. Overall, the Filers Hole is a great spot for anyone who loves nature and wants to explore the beauty of the Salton Sea watershed.

Responsible visitation & Leave No Trace

Know before you go
Check the operator's site (BLM, NPS, state agency, or private owner) for access rules, permits, and seasonal closures before driving out.
Stay on trail
Many points of interest sit in fragile ecosystems. Stick to marked paths to protect vegetation and prevent erosion.
Respect wildlife
Observe from a distance, never feed wildlife, and give nesting birds and denning mammals plenty of space.
Pack it in, pack it out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you. Remote sites often have no trash service.
Leave what you find
Don't take rocks, plants, fossils, or artifacts. Federal law protects cultural and natural resources on public land.
