Death Valley Area Hikes
Death Valley National Park covers a huge portion of Inyo County and extends
into the state of Nevada and into San Bernardino County. Elevations in the park range
from 282 feet below sea level to over 11,000 feet above sea level.
Geographically, the park is located in the transition zone between the
northern portion of the Mojave Desert and the Great Basin Region. Due to
the extreme elevation range within the park and it's location between two
major geographical areas, the biodiversity within the park is extraordinary and
as a result there is a tremendous variety of terrain types to enjoy while
hiking!
DISCLAIMER: All route descriptions are approximate and hikers should verify
the routes on topographic maps. Also many of these routes follow donkey
trails. Some of these trails are faint and difficult to find or follow.
Additionally, some of these hikes require some off-trail navigation.
Hiking in wilderness areas is potentially dangerous and all hikers are
advised to carry emergency equipment and to be prepared for possibly
dangerous situations.
