Fodor's Expert Review California Riding and Hiking Trail
Joshua Tree National Park
Trail
You'll need a backcountry camping pass, two or three days, and tons of stamina to traverse this 36.6-mile route through a variety of Mojave Desert landscapes between Black Rock Canyon and the park's north entrance. You can access the trail for a short or long hike at several points. The visitor centers have trail maps. Also popular with equestrians. Difficult.
