Embark on an unforgettable road trip from the serene Kelso Dunes in the Mojave National Preserve to the rugged beauty of Joshua Tree National Park, showcasing Southern California's desert landscapes in the vibrant bloom of spring.
Starting at Kelso Dunes, marvel at the towering sand dunes shimmering in the morning light. The spring season breathes life into the arid landscape, with wildflowers dotting the sands. Take Kelso Dunes Road back to Kelbaker Road, cutting through the heart of the Mojave.
Travel south on Kelbaker Road, where Joshua trees begin to appear. Continue to National Trails Highway (Route 66). Turn right onto National Trails Highway, passing through Amboy and the famous Amboy Crater.
From Amboy, turn right onto Amboy Road heading south. This road takes you through stunning desert vistas toward Twentynine Palms. Turn left onto Two Mile Road, leading to the north entrance of Joshua Tree National Park.
Here, the landscape transforms with massive boulders and rugged mountains. Explore the park's two distinct desert ecosystems: the Mojave Desert with Joshua trees and the Colorado Desert with unique flora and fauna.
In spring, Joshua Tree National Park bursts into color with wildflowers and cacti in vibrant displays. Hike Hidden Valley, climb the boulders at Jumbo Rocks, or drive through the park to soak in the vistas.
This road trip offers a breathtaking glimpse into the diverse beauty of the California desert, especially magical in spring. Enjoy the views coupled with original calm ambient music.
This road trip was part of a 16 days hiking trip to the Southwest USA national parks, preserves and monuments, April 2023.
