During the winter season, late October through mid-April, Park Rangers lead a variety of walks and talks. The schedule for these programs changes each week.
Ranger Guided Programs
Ranger guided walks, talks and evening programs for the coming week. During the winter season, the program schedule is updated every week.
Scotty's Castle Living History House Tours
Guided living history tours of the main house interior are conducted daily 365 days a year, 7 days a week. The interior of the house is a working museum.
Scotty's Castle Lower Vine Ranch Tours
Death Valley Scotty actually lived at the Lower Vine Ranch rather than at Scotty's Castle. Although the Lower Vine is usually closed to the public, this winter there will be ranger-led tours on select dates.
GPS Ranger Self Guided Tours
The GPS Ranger is a satellite controlled self-guided auto and walking tour of Death Valley's scenic and historic highlights. There are more than 80 ranger talks keyed to GPS "hot spots" throughout the park.
