Itinerar

  1. Death Valley Junction

    5 min

    Despite its foreboding name, this valley is one of the most thrilling places in the country. Sure, it’s the hottest place in the world, but you’ll soon see that the heat is worth the hassle!

    Note: The tour is over 80 miles long, includes more than 55 audio stories, and takes about 4-5 hours to complete.

    New. Lifetime access with no expiry. Use it anytime, on any trip, as many times as you want.

    Important: Please download the Tour Guide App by Action and your Death Valley audio tour before entering the park. Cell service can be very limited in Death Valley, so download the tour in advance over strong WiFi or cellular data. Once downloaded, the GPS map and audio stories work offline while you drive.

  2. Oprirea 2

    5 min

    While the famed Gold Rush brought a huge influx of hopefuls to Death Valley, it wasn’t gold which kept the valley on the map. In their frantic search for that prized metal, miners stumbled upon something just as valuable: borax.

  3. Dante's View

    Trecere fără oprire

    Affording breathtaking views of the undulating salt flats below, Dante's View is a phenomenal place for photography, or simply watching the sun set behind the Panamint Mountains. This vista towers more than 5,000 feet above the Badwater Basin, on the cusp of the Black Mountain Range.

  4. Twenty Mule Team Canyon

    Trecere fără oprire

    This is Twenty Mule Team Canyon, named for those iconic wagon trains I just mentioned. This winding road offers some truly excellent desert scenery as you weave between saffron colored hills and colorful badlands. If you visit in the early morning or around sunset, you’ll be treated to dazzling colors as the orange sunlight paints the dramatic rock faces.

  5. Zabriskie Point

    Trecere fără oprire

    Named for a 19th-century borax baron, who you’ll hear about in a second, Zabriskie Point is easily one of Death Valley’s most iconic locations. From this perch on the Amargosa Mountain range, you can really see how erosion has shaped this valley. Directly below are the badlands. Past those, much lighter in color, you’ll see the dazzling salt flats. All of it is framed by the hulking Panamint Mountains beyond.

  6. Furnace Creek Visitor Center

    Trecere fără oprire

    Here at the Furnace Creek Visitor Center, you’ll find snacks, water, and restrooms, but more importantly…a thermometer! Just outside the entrance is a big digital readout that’ll tell you exactly how hot it is here at one of Death Valley’s lowest points. Make sure to snap a photo standing next to it to shock your friends and family back home.

  7. Golden Canyon

    Trecere fără oprire

    From here, you can access the Golden Canyon trail. This out and back trail is about 3 miles total, and takes around one hour to complete. This popular trail sees many visitors each year, so you’re sure to encounter a few fellow hikers during your trip!

  8. Oprirea 8

    5 min

    That gentle hill off to your right is called Mars Hill. If you think about it, the name makes sense! Much of Death Valley brings to mind the arid, lifeless surface of the planet Mars. The deep ochre stones, strange rock formations and great dusty expanses certainly feel like they don’t quite belong on earth.

  9. Artist's Drive

    Trecere fără oprire

    This canvas was painted by volcanic deposits of iron oxides and chlorite. While the badlands of Zabriskie Point were colored largely by different sedimentary deposits, these rocks owe their glow to a totally different era of Death Valley’s geology.

  10. Artists Palette

    Trecere fără oprire

    This is the best spot to view the Artist’s Palette, a collection of wildly colorful rocks that look like they can’t possibly be natural. And yet they are!

  11. Devil's Golf Course

    Trecere fără oprire

    This road is rugged and unpaved, so use caution when driving. It leads to a fascinating landscape known as Devils Golf Course. When most people think of golf courses, they’ll imagine verdant rolling hills, smoothly manicured turf and the sound of birdsong. But Death Valley offers no such thing.

  12. Oprirea 12

    5 min

    This is Badwater Basin, home to salt flats which spread out across the desert for a whopping 200 square miles. At 282 feet below sea level, this basin is the lowest point in North America.
