Trail Overview

This easy, graded trail takes you from Highway 95 into the vast trail networks in the valley. Continuing past the recorded turn will take you all the way to the Death Valley park boundary. The trail is easy and mostly washboard, with plenty of places to pass oncoming traffic. There are 3 bars of LTE with Verizon. It's the desert, so pack accordingly; bring lots of water, watch for rattlesnakes, and be aware of sharp rocks that may puncture your tires. The town of Beatty is nearby for fuel, groceries, and restaurants.
