Don’t let the name fool you. Death Valley National Park is home to 400 wildlife species and offers some of the most spectacular scenery in the U.S.
Highlights include:
- Spectacular Geology
- Canyons, Alluvial Fans, Salt Flats, and Sand Dunes
- Fascinating Human History
- Elevations from 282 Feet Below Sea Level to 11,049 Feet
The trip begins in Las Vegas where the guides will meet you and whisk you away to the Furnace Creek Ranch, about two and one-half hours and a world away. While in Death Valley, you will undertake a series of short hikes and all-day hikes in order to gain an overview of what the park has to offer.
As you explore such places as Mosaic Canyon, Marble Canyon, the Artist’s Palette, the Devil’s Golf Course, The Sand Dunes and the Keane Wonder Mine, you begin to get a feel for the geologic and human history of the park. No visit to the park is complete without a walk on the Badwater salt flats, the lowest point in the lower 48 states at 282 feet below sea level. It is all uphill from there!
On the final full day, hike uphill to Wildrose Peak (9,064 ft.), gaining a bird’s eye view of the mysteriously beautiful world you have enjoyed all week.
