サンバーナディーノ山脈のおすすめツーリングルート

Probably the most crowded place in Joshua Tree NP - and that's because the skull is right next to the parking lot.

Queen Valley is remote and generally less busy that other parts in park since it's only accessible via dirt roads. However, if the dirt is an attraction for you rather than a deterrent you will be we rewarded. There are multiple hiking trails, back country camp sites and climbing spots in the valley, so pack well and enjoy.

From here you have the choice of a number of trails, most of which lead out to old mining sites. However, the unique and beautiful desert landscape is the main attraction.

Skull Rock lives up to its name with two hollowed out holes in the shape of eyes. In addition to the eponymous rock, you can take the Skull Rock Nature Trail to see Elephant Rock and other geologic formations that have been eroded into the rocks over millennia.

Bighorn Pass Road is a great way to explore some less visited areas of the park. The dirt road connects with Queen Valley Road and Park Boulevard, so you've got plenty of options on where to go, just be sure to bring plenty of water as shade is scarce.

Chimney Rock is a towering formation that resembles a natural chimney rising from the desert floor. This striking rock is surrounded by a landscape of massive boulders, sandy washes, and the park's namesake Joshua trees.

Starting point for some of the scenic trails in Joshua Tree National Park, this spot offers convenient amenities, including toilets and water fountains.

Park Boulevard Road offers stunning desert views, surrounded by iconic Joshua trees, rugged rock formations, and sweeping vistas. The road features smooth pavement with gentle climbs and descents. Start early to enjoy the sunrise light and avoid the intense afternoon heat. Don’t forget to bring plenty of water, as there are no refill stations along the way!
