Hiking & Rock Climbing
A hike along Barker Dam is like a stroll through history. The beginning of this 1.5-mile trail is mostly shaded and winds through giant rock formations. About halfway along the trail, you’ll see Barker Dam, which was built by C.O. Barker in 1900. In 1949, Bill Keys, an area rancher, raised the dam wall by 6 feet. Just past the dam is an old stone horse trough also built by Keys. The water collected here makes it attractive to birds. If you enjoy bird-watching, Joshua Tree is home to 250 species.

This flat, mile-long trail takes hikers through a large valley surrounded by giant boulders and rock formations. Along the way, you’ll see several varieties of trees and cacti. The unique microclimate in this valley brings together a combination of plants not seen anywhere else in the park.
The Hidden Valley Trail is great for multigenerational groups and those looking for a quick and easy hike. Be sure to read the signs placed along the route that explain the flora and fauna. Surrounding the parking area are several picnic tables, an ideal spot for lunch before or after a hike.

Located in the heart of Joshua Tree is Ryan Mountain, and the trail to its peak will guarantee a good workout and great views. Don’t be misled by the short distance of 1.5 miles each way -- the National Park Service rates this trail as strenuous.

The Lost Horse Mine Trail follows the road that J.D. Ryan, one of the former mine owners, built to transport the ore. This moderate trail is 4 miles round trip. Along the way, you’ll appreciate views of the surrounding park, but the main attraction is certainly the old mine. Due to the dangers of crumbling structures and collapsing shafts, everything is blocked by a chain link fence. But it’s still worth the hike to see this piece of history. If you’re up for a bigger challenge, continue along the trail to the ridge where you can look down on the mine.
