Death Valley National Park
Widely known as the hottest place on Earth, Death Valley is a land of extremes. Rugged mountains, salt flats, and sand dunes are some of the park’s highlights! Beneath the desolate and uninhabited scene, the park hides continuously-changing landmarks which stand truly spectacular in their unconventional beauty!
Hottest, driest, and lowest – are the main ways to describe Death Valley National Park. With temperatures reaching 120+ degrees, you should carefully choose the best time for your visit.
Spring is the most popular season among visitors hoping to catch beautiful wildflower displays.
Winter would be my personal recommendation since the temperatures are still pleasant during the day for hiking and exploration without the intense heat. Nights can get a bit cold and sometimes temperatures even drop below freezing, so just make sure you are prepared for chilly evenings.
Even though, Death Valley never seems to be too crowded, January tends to be the quietest month, offering a more tranquil experience with an excellent opportunity to explore this land of extremes.
