Besides fascinating geography, wildlife and plant life, Joshua Tree National Park is distinctively marked by the reminders of the early Pinto Man who inhabited the area and the abandoned mines of 1800’s gold seekers waiting to be discovered along the many hiking trails. Geographically, the park encompasses rugged mountains of twisted rock, granite monoliths, arroyos, playas and alluvial fans. In the spring, view colorful spring blooms or spy a desert tortoise emerging from hibernation. Plan to hike, camp, rock climb or take a guided tour.
A scenic drive up Highway 62 to Twentynine Palms leads to the north entrance of Joshua Tree National Park. Comprised of high-desert wilderness and hosting “forests” of namesake Joshua trees, desert wildlife, inspiring vistas and a colorful history, the nearby park is a natural treasure for visitors from all over the world.
