Joshua Tree National Park - Geologic Tour

Home > Joshua Tree > Planning > Activities > Geologic Tour

Wildflowers of Joshua Tree
An 18-mile motor tour leads through one of Joshua Tree National Park’s most fascinating landscapes. There are 16 stops along a dirt road and it takes approximately two hours to make the round trip. A descriptive brochure that highlights each stop is available at the beginning of the road.

At stop #9, Squaw Tank, which is 5.4 miles from the beginning, a chemical toilet is provided and there is adequate turn-out space for returning to the main park road. Or you can proceed on the one-way portion (numbered stops 10 through 16) to continue exploring Pleasant Valley. In good weather sedans and trucks may access the route as far as Squaw Tank, stop #9. After that a 4-wheel-drive vehicle is recommended. The road is not suitable for campers, trailers, and motor homes.
