Death Valley National Park
Despite the name, Death Valley National Park really comes alive in the fall — and is the perfect destination for any nature explorer. Visiting in fall means avoiding the heat of California’s summer months and instead enjoying a visit during the shoulder season where crowds are smaller and the weather is cooler. Described as “otherworldly,” this national park’s awe-inspiring, diverse landscapes and rich history is full of life and adventure. From catching the sunrise at Zabriskie Point, wading in the spring-fed pools at The Inn at Death Valley, teeing off at the world’s lowest elevation golf course, to exploring the 2100-year-old volcanic crater of Ubehebe, you’re sure to find a stunning, out-of-this-world visual you never thought possible!
