Hiking
The Desolation Canyon Trail is one of the lesser known trails within Death Valley. Here you hike through a beautiful wine glass-shaped gorge, which is made of sandstone of different shades of color. Your destination here is a view of the ridgetop of Artist Drive and the breathtaking view of Death Valley.
