    Finding a waterfall in the hostile surrounding of Death Valley National Park is nothing you would expect when starting the short trail to Darwin Falls. It is like a little oasis which keeps the small canyon green and full of life.
      Adventurous hikers can climb the rocks on the left side to see the upper falls. The lower falls are just a short mostly flat and easy walk through a shaded canyon. The view from the upper falls shows even more clearly that the Darwin falls with the small romantic pond are an oasis in an otherwise barren desert. The water runs most of the year, though best in Spring.
        A short mostly flat and easy walk through a shaded canyon leads to these paradise falls with a small romantic pond, just perfect to refresh on a hot Death Valley day. The water runs most of the year, though best in Spring. Adventurous hikers can climb the rocks on the left side to see the upper falls.
