Joshua Tree has become increasingly trendy and popular over the years, and after visiting it, it’s easy to see why! Just a short three hour drive from Los Angeles, and you’ll be in this Wild West meets Men in Black desert playground! ‘
Many people associate Joshua Tree as a place for “hippies”, “yogis”, or a place to visit before or after Coachella. But I can assure you, I am interested in NONE of those things, and I absolutely loved it!
As I mentioned, Joshua Tree National Park is wildly trendy these days, so you defintiely want to plan in advance, ESPECIALLY your accomodation! Things book up FAST and there aren’t a whole lot of options near the actual National Park!
Fall is the best time to go, since it won’t be so hot during the day. But just to warn you — it WILL get cold at night, and it WILL get crowded during the day!
Check out the rest of my tips and my itinerary for planning a Joshua Tree road trip in Fall 2020!
Tips For Going to Joshua Tree in Fall 2020:
- Expect crowds. It’s the perfect temperature, and there’s also a lot of holidays! Plus…it’s 2020, and most people are opting for road trips and domestic travel.
- To AVOID crowds, get to Joshua Tree National Park as early in the morning as you can!
- Book your accommodation far in advance! Especially if you want to stay closer to the park to get there first!
- Never EVER litter. Even food. DON’T DO IT.
- Expect chilly nights! Even when it’s brutally hot during the day!
Where to Stay?
As I mentioned above, you’ll need to book your Joshua Tree accommodation far in advance because everything fills up quickly! Places range from budget to luxury, and there’s even a few campervan options! I would suggest using the map feature to see which places are closest to the park entrances if you’re wanting to get there first thing in the morning!
Otherwise you can explore tons of more options just a few miles from the park entrances!
