Review:

To enjoy the full majesty of the Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve, you have to visit it in the spring, when the valley bursts into a spectacle of bright colors and the typical seasonal show of the Mojave Desert grasslands. The mosaic of colors and fragrance changes from day to day and from year to year and lasts from mid-February to the end of May.

There are 8 miles of trails in the park, and strolling along the rolling hills covered in wildflowers is a true delight. There are occasional benches, perfect for spotting lizards, meadow larks, or even a bobcat. The Jane S. Pinheiro Interpretive Center features wildlife and wildflower exhibits, a gallery of Jane Pinheiro’s botanical watercolors, an orientation video, and a gift shop.
