Review:
Joshua Tree National Park encompasses parts of the Mojave Desert and the Colorado Desert and is named for the unique, twisted Joshua trees found in the area.
The park offers some excellent hiking trails and rock climbing routes and is also a popular destination for birdwatchers and astronomy enthusiasts because of its isolated location and dark skies.
There are nine campgrounds in the park, some of which can accommodate RVs, but visitors should be aware that most do not have water.
A paved road running through the park allows visitors to access most of the major attractions by car.
