Again, if you're only here for a day or two, feel free to skip this. There's no way you can see the whole park in a few day, weeks or even years! Aguereberry Point is beautiful and scenic but not in my top 5 of things to see if I'm only gonna be there for two days.

a bit of rough road getting there, but oh, so worth it! Better views of the valley than Dante's View! Can see Furnace Creek Ranch, and north. Take the one-lane road up to the top for best view, walk the ridge.

Road conditions vary out to this view point, so it is worth checking with the rangers regarding current conditions. We were glad to have a Jeep. The view is spectacular, but this is a bit of a long drive and far removed from the central area of the Park.

Well off the beaten path, but wholly worthwhile -- probably the best viewing spot in the park to which one can drive, but not for the faint-of-heart. The road is somewhat rough, and at the end, quite steep and precipitous.

Trip there was boring until we started the uphill climb. Unfortunately it was really overcast with low-hanging clouds which restricted our visibility. The light snow offered some interesting moments. On a clear day this would be outstanding.

6 miles down an unpaved road. The road was a little rough and steep near the end. Our pickup made it ok, and we saw some sedans at the top. The view was worth the trip and we were alone virtually the entire time. You can see the Furnace Creek area 5000 feet below. Also some ruins and old mines... More

Beautiful view from the west side of Death Valley. I would combine this with a visit to the charcoal kilns. As good as view as Dantes!

We visited Aguereberry Point (6,433 feet) over the 2011 Thanksgiving weekend in our 2008 Subaru Forester. There is a great view of Badwater from the point. For a more expansive view which spans all the way to Furnace Creek, walk back toward the road and follow the short trail around the north side of the ridge. Tip: Bring binoculars so... More
