Joshua Tree National Park is 40 miles from Palm Springs, CA, a great vacation destination and site of the Coachella Festival if music is something you enjoy. There’s a 15-mile park road (30 miles out and back) that runs the length of the park that starts at the visitor center with great views of Joshua Trees, which are members of the yucca family, and rock formations. It is mostly a moderate to easy ride with a couple short, hard climbs on very low traffic roads.
