5 Fun Things to Do in Joshua Tree National Park, California | United States Travel Guide
5 Fun Things to Do in Joshua Tree National Park
With its Dr. Seuss-like Joshua trees stretching out across an almost lunar landscape of giant granite boulders and rolling mountains, Joshua Tree National Park is like something out of a children's story book. It's not uncommon to hear people using terms like magical or spiritual to describe how they feel about this park. Visitors come here to walk or hike among the trees, climb the towering rock walls, camp under the stars, capture the beauty in photographs, or simply soak up the tranquility of the desert.
Located where the Mojave and Colorado Deserts meet, the park has a complex landscape, with profoundly different appearances and vegetation depending on the elevation. Some areas are covered with mature Joshua trees as far as the eye can see, and others are completely devoid of these trees but offer their own unique beauty. Well positioned nature paths, hiking trails, and vehicle pullouts are spread throughout the park, providing easy access to this stunning landscape. Let's see five things to do in Joshua Tree National Park in California.
1. Hidden Valley Nature Trail and Day Use Area
2. Keys View
3. Barker Dam Nature Trail
4. Ryan Mountain Hike
5. Cholla Cactus Garden

See The City of Beaumont California!
I had a little visit to the small and beautiful town of Beaumont California. A visit to downtown and the major shopping area of Beaumont. Very affordable housing I noticed also - a great place to live if you are not into the mass of people in Los Angeles proper.
Beaumont is 80 miles from downtown LA and is at around 2600 foot elevation which makes it 5-10 degrees cooler than the LA valley.
Beaumont is also only 9.5 miles from the Morongo Casino and a half hour from Palm Springs. The largest shopping mall closest to Beaumont is in Moreno Valley which is 17 miles west of Beaumont.

Joshua Tree National Park, USA
Where the two distinct desert ecosystems of Southern California, the high and low deserts of the Mojave and the Colorado, come together, they create a world totally its own. Protected as Joshua Tree National Park, this unique world features plants and animals whose lives are shaped by frequent drought, strong winds, and rare torrential rains.

Joshua Tree Road Trip: 1 Day in Joshua Tree National Park
Took a day trip to Joshua Tree National Park with some friends. It was my first time being inside the park and I just wanted to film a little video to document our day.
Seeing Joshua Tree is definitely doable in one day, but I can also imagine camping there for a night or two would be pretty awesome.
