Death Valley National Park

  • 1 - 3 hours

Golden Canyon is one of the most popular hikes in Death Valley, and for a good reason- it is incredible! Walk between towering golden walls and learn about some of the many changes which have occurred over time in the area we now call Golden Canyon. This hike is an out and back, is slightly uphill on the way out, and is considered easy/medium difficulty. Make sure to take plenty of water and do not attempt during the heat of summer.
