getting there
Only one road leads by Joshua Tree National Park in the southern California desert. It can be reached from the south via Interstate 10. The approach from here is less interesting. The next bigger place is Palm Springs. From the north two paths lead into the park. Both branch off from Highway 62. The western of the two branches off directly in the village Joshua Tree from.

security
There are Jumping Cacti, Cacti, the prickly balls of which seem to jump at the hiker in passing and stick to him like burrs. More dangerous, however, are the rounded rock formations, which are inviting for climbing and from which tourists have to be freed again and again because they can go up, but can no longer find a safe way down.
