    • Joshua Tree National Park Cacti

    • By far the most dense area of cacti in the entire park, the cholla cactus garden is a quick stop as you ride along Pinto Basin Road. The trail is set and you take a quick walk around while checking out the large amount of cactus. It's worth taking a stop just to see so much of them at once.

    There is a small brochure you can purchase on site that provides information as you walk through.
