Welcome to the Joshua Tree Virtual Junior Ranger Program!

Explore Joshua Tree National Park and become a Junior Ranger from the comfort of your home.

 

How can you earn your Junior Ranger badge virtually? By completing the following activities on a sheet of paper at home, you will learn about some of the cultural and natural wonders of Joshua Tree National Park! If you are visiting the park, stop by a visitor center to pick up a Junior Ranger booklet and get your badge in person! Learn more about the in-person Junior Ranger program here.
