Tips from locals
Best stargazing spot according to the staff at the visitor center! There’s plenty of parking and a short, well-maintained trail to the rock formations at Cap Rock, as well as Joshua Trees all around – making for perfect foreground silhouettes in your astrophotos.
A great place to stop for an introduction to Joshua Tree. There is a short .3 nature trail with views of rocks and trees. Gram Parsons and Keith Richards hung out here looking for UFOs.
