It's small, accessible (only 2 hours from LA!), GORGEOUS, and really fun. Here's the perfect itinerary if you have one day to explore Joshua Tree National Park! - Nathalie

These are the videos that make me feel proud to live in Joshua Tree 😊

[@onegirloneworld]

I loovee the narration in this video! Great work!!

[@Noteandcoffee]

Oh! I love your videos! Thank you for showing us California! :)

[@nevtube15]

Amazing video..I can’t wait to get there tomorrow..

[@smittysmith6173]

I was stationed at 29 Palms back in the 80s. I loved going to The Monument as we called it then. Beautiful.

[@PvtLingo]

Spent a week backpacking there with Outward Bound, fell in love with it.

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

Wow, a week?? You must have seen every inch of the park!

[@Twofortheroad]

Great video! Thanks for sharing. We've never been, but it's now DEFINITELY on the list! Cheers :)

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

Two for the Road SO worth a trip out there. I've been several times and it never gets old!

[@Bellonni]

Nice video ! I’m going to upload mine soon :) so excited. It was a nice place to travel to ♥️

[@alexponcedeleon2614]

Awesome vid. One small nit...the double "ll" is not silent. It's Spanish. It's pronounced like a Y in English, like when you would say young or yeast.

[@Menstral]

The handful of actual LA Natives.... are on their phone during the weekend.

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

On their phone....in the desert. Or beach. But you're not wrong lol.

[@richardb433]

Great video.... I was there in July/August...fantastic place & I know what you mean, I fell in love with it as well... I will be making another trip to Joshua Tree from New Zealand one day.... The Harmony Motel in Twentynine Palms is a awesome place to stay too... :-)

[@LomilomiHealing]

Aloha,Epic vid! I use to live in the area of JT during the winters & Hawai`i during the rest of the year. JT definitely has a special energy about it, the vast landscapes & incredible rock formations are a wonder to behold. I loved to hear the eerie coyote calls in the evenings & watching the humming birds doing their crazy flying acrobatics during the day. JT is definitely one of the best places for desert hiking in the western states & also has world class bouldering & rock climbing. Always remember that the desert is a very fragile ecosystem, it takes an unbelievable long time for the plants, animals & environment to bounce back from any type of damage. Also, remember to take plenty water & pack out what you take in (no trash). Respect & cherish Mother Nature & she will offer you some of the most unforgettable experiences & memories in your lifetime. Safe & happy adventuring...

[@chenydeniz3594]

going there next week for 3 days. I m excited;) thanks

[@COMMUNITYPROPERTY78]

great video! i try to go there as much as i can…..that place is magic. i still have to sleep in there, thats next on my to do list :)

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

+Matt Vegas I don't go nearly often enough. There's a lot to see there....The jumbo rocks area looked like a really popular camp site, although there were sites all over the park.

[@charlieramz3126]

We are here in town, visiting from Chicago. This is tomorrow's trip for us!!!

[@Nicolelennox]

Great info! I wish I would have known about that Keys View before I went. I guess I'll have to save it for next time. : )

[@whoshotinpalmsprings9967]

awesome video! Thanks for sharing.

[@mgrzchrs592]

Great movie! All of the points added to my list! I will be i Joshua Tree NP I a bit more than a week and hope to fall in love as you said!

[@theneverendinghighway]

This is so cool! I'm coming out to Anaheim in November for a convention and I'm staying for an extra two days after. I wanted to spend one day at Joshua Tree. Thanks for the video and the tips.

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

Awesome!! It should be beautiful and crisp in November

[@jonmacdonald5345]

Mike S Are you going to the Game convention too???

[@canadadog]

amazing! great info

[@mayraclmnt2101]

beautiful vid thanks for representing ANGELINOS so well

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

YEAH!!

[@sstone1940]

This is beautiful commentary

[@fatbowe]

.....And So Is The Commentator....😁

[@JohnMacDonald123]

There's like a cool hidden hermit cave you can go to. The rangers won't tell you where it is but if you have a GPS then you can hike right to it very easy.

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

+Adventure J No way! I wish I had known that before, that's really cool!

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Nice. Joshua Tree has been on my bucket list for years but never made it (despite being a Californian). Beautiful landscapes. They reminded me a little bit of Hampi, India, though Hampi is even weirder. Anyway good stuff, subscribed.

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

Gabriel Traveler Really?! I must see Hampi then, I love weird quirky places

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

The Travel Muse Yeah, it's ultra cool. Amazing, surreal landscapes, ancient Hindu ruins, a river you can swim in, a lake nearby, nice little restaurants, cheap rooms, etc. One of the top places to see in India.

[@billythephoenix]

U2 released The Joshua Tree in March of '87. Day of release bought the cassette, next day we were in Joshua Tree National Monument as the snow was falling all around us in that high desert. It was a Beautiful Day. You did such a pro job on this video. I will sub and look forward to checking out your other videos too.

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

Thank you!!

[@jonmacdonald5345]

THE PHOENIX U2 Sucks Donkey!!

[@monicasilva7296]

I went to cactus garden years ago and somehow I tripped and fell and got splinters or needles all over my forearm. It's been about 20 years and I can still feel em in my arm. Anywho I luv ur day trips and all ur videos

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

Ouch lol that sucks!

[@melissahall7009]

love it, thanks

[@jazminec.569]

I was born and raised in LA and I have never been to the Joshua Tree. I am finally going to go next month! (:

[@1MNUTZ]

sorry it's closed next month

[@stephenparslow7964]

Went there in December, wow.

[@SAVAGE308SNIPER]

Why didn't you mention Arch Rock!!! That's probably the most popular location there! Last Skull Rock...

[@NARRASSAFilmes]

Muito legal o vídeo. Será q da pra atravessar o parque em um mustang Conversivel?

[@gravityimage5]

I like your vlogs. :)

[@PatiwKalifornii]

Very helpful video! Helped me with my trip to Joshua tree this weekend 😊 I posted a video about it :)

[@cloverconnections]

Great video. Be sure to use that wind guard on your mic though!

[@michaelspeakman1874]

Also check out Joshua Tree Saloon :3 great eats n cold brew

[@amozbangayan8744]

Hi! Loved the vid, I'm a couple hours away from JTNP. I'm curious to know how the parking situation is?

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

There are tons of 'parking lots' around the park because of all the camp grounds. Just keep an eye out, they're all well-marked with signs and such

[@jsmurf2520]

Nice 😭💕

[@blizzardbaby]

How long does it take to drive through the park from the south entrance to the west or north? My friend and I are hoping to stop there on our way from Phoenix to Palm Springs (off of hgwy 10). Thank you... Love this video.

[@MrPlooky]

I've done that drive both ways, it's about an hour

[@Sweetbeariesart]

Drive up through Big Bear and down to Lucern Valley for an even more scenic drive.

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

+MountainGirl78 Ooooh that sounds so nice! I'd love to do that...never been! I always stop at Joshua Tree or continue all the way through to Vegas or Phoenix

[@Sweetbeariesart]

+Nite Owl It is long that way, but for us it was shorter since I live near Big Bear.

[@gruntball]

Not bad. You have to get of the 10 onto the 62. Spoken like a true Californian. hehehehehe

[@americanvista]

[@TheMamspoker]

Nice job. BTW the double L is not silent in Spanish, it is pronounced like English "Y". In Medellin Colombia they pronounce it like "J".

[@edmondYJ]

is it possible to cover the whole park within 1 day?

[@NathalieTravelMuse]

Yeah, it's pretty small so it's easy to hop in the car and go from one area to another. Stop at the ranger station first and they'll give you a map

[@madhavprasadaryal4580]

Nice

[@AGENTARMES]

Ppl from LA have turned the desert into a fuckin fashion show

[@sattja1]

Joshua tree is way better ttan the grand canyon (southern rim) in my opinion. the view of the grand canyon wears off after a few hours there.. then theres no much to do in the village unless you have plans to hike and stuff. but if youre just there for an easy going trip, to camp, hang out, see the views.. Joshua tree is the better overall experience.

[@dylxnchn]

*try to bring a comb to take out the cholla*

[@user-wg3wj6ur9z]

Keys View is not the "highest point in the whole park", not being a troll. The "highest point in the whole park" is Quail Mountain, 5,814'.

[@ala7515]

Great informational video and your narration was symphony to my ears. But on serious note - whats up with the half-nude guy roaming in the desert? Put some clothes on man, not in the back pocket. -:)

[@smug8567]

No reason to visit after phone booth removal.
