A free app with commentary in French, German, Spanish, and Italian is also available. The tour begins with a stop at the park’s welcome sign for photos. Next, visit Zabriskie Point, where the erosion of Furnace Creek Lake formed unique desert landscapes over five million years. Then, go to Dante’s View, a terrace 5,476 feet above the valley floor, offering wide views of the desert below. The route continues to Twenty Mule Team Canyon and Artists Palette, known for colorful mineral deposits from volcanic activity. Lunch and a break happen at Furnace Creek Visitor Center, where guests can see exhibits about the local borax mining history and the famous 20 Mule Team. Afterward, the tour stops at Badwater Basin, the lowest point in North America at 282 feet below sea level, marked by vast salt flats. The next stop is Devil’s Golf Course, where jagged salt formations create a striking landscape reached by a short off-road section.
