Death Valley National Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Alive in Death Valley
death valley was named by a group of pioneers who got lost there in the winter of 1849-1850. 💀 we joined a tour with mojave wave llc and it wasn’t as blazing hot when we visited — just 28°C. i particularly loved the mesquite flat #sanddunes 🏜 and the badwater basin, they were both breath-taking and fun to wander through. ✨ #funfact the filming of the original #starwars trilogy took place in death valley! 🎬 golden #canyon was where r2d2 was abducted by the jawas 🤖
Death Valley, USA, is a major part of the Mojave and Colorado Deserts Biosphere Reserve. It is also the lowest and driest region in North America. There are ominous nicknames such as "dead crater", "dry bone valley" and "burial mountain".
However, people who can't stop curiosity and love adventures completely... Just like the legend about the bloody violence of ghosts, only people have created the Twilight City Elf Hostel.... On October 31, 1994, the US government Set the Death Valley of the United States as a national park. As a result, it attracts more tourists. Tourists trekking in Death Valley National Park
Death Valley is the best season for sightseeing from the beginning of November to the end of April, especially during Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. It is suitable for sightseeing. The sightseeing spot is a 9-mile Artists Drive route under Black Mountain and its Golden Canyon at 5 miles north of the entrance.
Death Valley National Park
Death Valley National Park is primarily located in the southeastern part of California, USA, with a small corner extending into Nevada. Geographically, the park is situated in North America's Basin and Range region, where there is frequent crustal activity. The crust to the east stretches eastward, and the crust to the west stretches westward, causing the crust here to sink in strips, breaking into roughly north-south oriented horsts (mountain ranges) and grabens (basins). The basin and range topography is particularly pronounced in Death Valley, as it contains the lowest point in the Western Hemisphere. The park features salt flats, sand dunes, volcanic craters, canyons, snow-capped mountains, and more, offering a wealth of geological and geomorphological wonders. Visitors can easily find a variety of faults, canyons, and alluvial fan plains of different sizes formed when streams flow into the desert.

Just beautiful, we were there in December it was cold but perfect weather for hikes and long walks. The Badwater Basin was so picturesque 👌 not to be missed. We did take the stroller all the way to the basin although it was a little hard to push also wear a shoes that you can wash of salt from when you go there.
We even saw a few Star Wars fans in costumes during our hikes :)
Fewer restrooms like most National Parks, go prepared
Fantastic place to visit, walk around or drive through. Amazing colors on the rock walls. Loved the painters pallet and the lake.
It took quite awhile to get there but worth it. It’s very remote with hardly any cell service. Fill up your tank before getting too far.
Death Valley is absolutely worth visiting! The landscapes are so unique that you'll forget you're still in the US and you can see insane natural phenomenons in just 1 day here.With an air conditioned vehicle you can safely tour many of the main sites in Death Valley. Stay on paved roads in summer, and if your car breaks down, stay with it until help arrives.

Erick Schat's Bakery Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
🇺🇸 Erick Schat's Bakery-Awesome sandwiches!
#wheretogo
This was such a great bakery! The only regret I had was not had more of their bread! This bakery is beloved by locals and visitors alike, this pastry and bakery is a must visit if you’re in town with plenty of parking space and dining area. The staff are always friendly. There are tons of baked varieties and pastries; coffee and ready-made sandwiches in HUGE range of sweet and savoury options. There was so much to choose from and we had a hard time making decisions. We ordered two freshly made sandwiches and both were filled to the brim and tasted delicious. The perfect combination of everything in one bite - extremely fresh ingredients, the most amazing freshly sliced bread, the best combination of ingredients. They are to absolutely die for.

Badwater Basin Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Badwater Basin in Death Valley National Park
Salt flats, which offer a surreal and otherworldly experience. The view is truly breathtaking, and visitors often feel as though they are walking on another planet.
You can see a variety of textures and patterns created by the salt formations, from smooth, glassy surfaces to intricate, crystalline structures.
Pls make sure that you prepare your own drinking water.
Dante's View Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
California's Death Valley, a scenic area that should not be overlooked.
Death Valley in California is only about a 2-hour drive from Las Vegas, so it is often considered an additional attraction for those visiting the gambling city, and its rich content is often overlooked. In fact, its area ranks among the top in the national parks in the United States, but due to the lack of distinctive features and the scattered distribution of attractions, coupled with the extremely harsh environment (the negative altitude causes the surface temperature to remain above 50 degrees Celsius for a long time in summer) and insufficient development, people are not very fond of it. In fact, it is still a very good choice to visit it carefully, especially in winter.
My spouse and I used two days in November 2022 to self-drive and visit some attractions. Due to the previous flooding, the northern and western roads of the park were interrupted, making some attractions inaccessible. We departed from Los Angeles and arrived at the east gate of the park before noon. We visited Dante's View, Badwater, Artist's Palette, and Zabriskie Point. We stayed overnight at the Amargosa Opera House in Death Valley, a hotel and theater opened by a former female dancer.
On the second morning, we went to Zabriskie Point to watch the sunrise, and then hiked the Golden Canyon trail. After passing through the visitor center in Furnace Creek, we visited the mining site Harmony Borax Works and Sand Dunes (a filming location for the movie "Dune"). We stopped for gas at Stovepipe Wells Village (which was surprisingly cheaper than Death Valley), and then headed southwest and turned left onto Emigrant Canyon Road (since Highway 190 was closed). This road is a narrow paved road that goes uphill all the way. There were few cars on the road, but many cyclists, and we also saw many wild donkeys eating grass leisurely against the backdrop of distant snow-capped mountains. Our final stop was the Charcoal Kilns, located above the snow line, and after this point, cars without snow chains could no longer travel. We then turned west and left the national park, ending our park trip around 4 pm.
The final experience to share is that Death Valley is still a worthwhile tourist attraction, especially the Golden Canyon trail, which is worth spending half a day to a day exploring. If the scenic area is open normally, it takes 2-3 days to visit, and I recommend everyone to come and experience it.
