About

California's parks offer a diverse array of landscapes and experiences that reflect the state's natural beauty. In places like Joshua Tree National Park, visitors can explore the otherworldly rock formations and iconic Joshua trees that dot the desert landscape. The park's unique trails, such as the Hidden Valley Trail, provide opportunities for both hiking and rock climbing, with panoramic views that reward those who venture up. Further north, the towering redwoods of Muir Woods National Monument create a stunning backdrop for peaceful walks among ancient trees, some of which soar over 250 feet high.
