Once you’ve downloaded the tour, your journey will begin at Death Valley Junction, just a short way outside the park itself. As you drive, you’ll get acquainted with some basic facts about safety in such an extreme climate. You’ll also hear about the unfortunate miners who gave this place its ominous name.

Soon, you’ll have the opportunity to take a detour to Dante’s View, offering incredible vistas from 5,000 feet above the valley’s lowest point. Past that, you’ll come to an iconic scenic drive at Twenty Mule Team Canyon, which shows off some of the area’s strange and beautiful badlands.

Up next is Zabriskie Point, a phenomenal place to watch the sunrise or start a badland hike.

After a stop at the visitor center, you’ll head down Badwater Road, where you’ll find the Golden Canyon Trail, one of the park’s most popular hikes. Beyond that is the strange and captivating landscape of Artist’s Drive, home to brilliantly colorful rock formations that look like they’ve been splattered with paint.

Then, you’ll see Devil's Golf Course, a seemingly endless field of craggy salt crystals that pop under the heat of the Death Valley sun. Next, you’ll pass the Natural Bridge Trail, offering a look at a rocky bridge formed by erosion.

Finally, you’ll arrive at Badwater Basin. This isn’t just the lowest elevation point in North America; it’s also where you’ll be able to walk across Death Valley’s famous salt flats. Your tour concludes here.
