Death Valley National Park
Expect solitude and plenty of parking
Great any time
The hottest, driest, and lowest place in North America, Death Valley is a land of extremes. This vast desert landscape features colorful badlands, towering sand dunes, mysterious moving rocks, and below-sea-level salt flats. Despite its forbidding name, the park supports a surprising variety of life and offers exceptional stargazing. Visit in spring for wildflower blooms or winter for comfortable temperatures.
