You'll be surrounded by enormous granite rock formations and beautiful desert nature as you walk along the trail of hidden valley. You'll want to bring your camera and take lots of pictures.

(An Optional Stop )Skull Rock might be one of the most popular rocks in the park 30 minutes
(An Optional Stop )Skull Rock might be one of the most popular rocks in the park. Located around Jumbo Rocks campground, It's an iconic metamorphic boulder which is shaped like a skull. Kids love Skull Rock. Joshua Tree National Park has lots of gorgeous boulders, some look like they are carved out and shaped by someone but it's just millions of years of erosion. Ask your tour guide about Skull Rock.
