Red Pass

Red Pass, snaking its way to Titus Canyon, is worth a look, and for more than the reddish hue of its rocks but for the panorama it reveals.

Telescope Peak trail

Strenuous hiking trail with an elevation gain of 3,000 feet to the highest summit in the Panamint range at 11,049 feet.

Reviewed By catchuslater - Sequim, United States

Recommend to go in spring or early fall when days are longer. It’s a medium level hike for us...and we are in our 70’s. It doesnt get steep until the very last part. The last time we did it...on Halloween.....the wind was whipping us and it was pretty cold. Be prepared, but it’s very doable.

Daylight Pass

A moderately strenuous pass leading to Titus Canyon.

Reviewed By TrailTrekker15 - Tallahassee, United States

My wife and I took Daylight Pass Road on our way out of Death Valley. The views were incredible! The road rapidly rises out of the valley into the surrounding mountains. Once you cross the pass, Nevada spread out before us. Right after coming out of the mountains, I recommend a quick drive through Rhysolite Ghost Town near Beatty. This was a beautiful way to end our day at Death Valley!

Salt Creek Interpretive Trail

Reviewed By karebl - Oregon, United States

This was an easy boardwalk hike near a stream with small pup fish in it. (Very hard to see as they were small) We ran out of time due to a prior commitment and wish we had time to see the whole loop and larger pond at the end.

Fall Canyon

Reviewed By Goodness4you - Newport Beach, United States

This slot canyon is fairly easy to get to and empty. It's not as spectacular ar Golden or Mosaic but so private.
