The park has reopened! After a brief closure due to a winter storm, all the main roads are now open. Campgrounds, visitor centers, and hiking trails are open. Water and ice may be present on the roads; drive cautiously. All dirt roads are closed and will reopen when cleared. With highs in the 50’s, the snow will be melting quickly over the next few days. ⛄️ 🎥:NPS video/Bill Bjornstad 🎵: First Snow- Guilio Cercato | Joshua Tree National Park

How long does it take to drive through the park? Valid question! ⁣ ⁣ It takes approximately 45 minutes to drive from the Joshua Tree Visitor Center to Oasis Visitor Center on the main park road, not including the wait time at the fee entrance station.

So plan ahead to make sure you are able to see it all and beat the crowds
