The most breathtaking viewpoint in the park, this mountain-top overlook is more than 5000 feet above the inferno of Death Valley. The paved access road has some rough sections but is open to all vehicles less than 25 feet in length and starts east of Furnace Creek on Hwy 190. It overlooks Badwater: Lowest point in North America at 282 feet below sea level, Badwater Basin is a surreal landscape of vast salt flats. A temporary lake may form here after heavy rainstorms.

Dante’s View gives you an almost bird’s eye view of the valley below and the mountain range across from it. It is breathtaking by all means an one of my favorite spots in the park.

A great view of the valley. The view extends from the Badwater Basin to Furnace Creek.
