Area Information

Joshua Tree National Park - This 800,000 acre desert park provides a spectacular contrast of scenery from two ecosystems - the Mojave Desert, which is the high desert home to the Joshua Tree and Fan Palm; and the Colorado Desert, a low desert that features an arid terrain with ocotillo and "jumping Cholla" cactus. Visitors are astounded by great granite monoliths and twisted rock formations; the diverse range of mammals, plants, reptiles, and over 240 species of birds. Enjoy hikes, explore remnants of the gold mining eras, rock climb, tour the Desert Queen Ranch (an early 1900 ranch), or camp in one of their nine campgrounds.
