Death Valley National Park covers over 3 million acres of wilderness, making it the largest national park in the Lower 48. It is a land of contrasts, home to the lowest point in North America and the driest place on the continent. Facts aside, the terrain is otherworldly and offers a variety of unique hiking opportunities for the active traveler: narrow, labyrinthine slot canyons through polished marble and limestone, hidden oases frequented by bighorn sheep, and challenging mining trails that climb to remote desert summits. Explore hidden narrows, traverse high ridge lines with expansive desert views, and experience the scenic Mesquite Flat sand dunes. While the days are action-packed, the evenings are spent kicking back at our campsite, enjoying colorful desert sunsets, and savoring the delicious meals prepared by our guides. A perfect long-weekend escape from daily life and a chance to forge new friendships with like-minded peers.
