Fortynine Palms Oasis Trail is a 3.1-mile out-and-back trail near Twentynine Palms, California that’s generally considered to be of moderately challenging difficulty. This highly popular route through the Joshua Tree National Park offers visitors the chance for an incredible outdoor adventure with stellar views and a hidden oasis featuring fan palm trees. With the rolling terrain, rocky ridges, sandy washes, and incredible vistas, this trail promises plenty for hikers to explore and enjoy.

For those looking to get outdoors and soak up some sun during their visit, Fortynine Palms Oasis Trail provides an enjoyable experience. Just make sure to bring shade, sunscreen, and plenty of water, as you’ll have limited shade and unreliable cell service.
