The racetrack is so interesting in so many ways. It is very difficult to get out to- my boyfriend and i rented a Rubicon jeep for ~$250 for the day (yeah, it's expensive) but we didn't want to pop our tires on our rental car,...More
Yes, the ride is really long. And really bumpy. But you will find yourself all alone in this marvelous desert. Look carefully for the racetracks. They aren't as obvious as you might expect! Oh - and bring plenty of water...and a Jeep with off-road tires.
The drive down the road should only be attempted with high clearance 4 wheel drive, as every bit of Park information will state. It is very rough and driving on it fast is irresponsible and dangerous. Give yourself a good part of the day to...More
We really enjoyed this drive simply because of the remoteness (about 60 miles outside of Furnace Creek, 25miles of which are traveled at 10-20mph max on a incredibly rough bulldozed rock road). It's about 3 - 3.5 hours each way from Furnace Creek so go...More
It will take a large portion of the day to see the Racetrack and once there it doesn't take very long to visit the site. We probably should have hiked Ubehebe Peak while there. We came to the racetrack from camping overnight in Warm Springs...More
I had to do this, just because it's something you have to do when visiting Death Valley, like hiking Half Dome in Yosemite at least once. While I found it very interesting, I would not do it again. I would, however, do some of the...More
We rented a Jeep at Farabees in Furance Creek and drove to the Racetrack Playa. It was July and VERY hot in Furnace creek. The Ractrack is at a much higher elevation and so was cooler. Still, you need to be careful. Travel over the...More
Just returned from a long journey to the Racetrack Playa in Death Valley. My trip started at 0600 AM from Vegas. I got to the Ubehebe crater to start the off-road adventure at 1030 AM. Then it was a 2.5 hour long slow drive over...More
I heard about the sailing stones of Racetrack many years ago and always thought it would be awesome to see them in person, but I didn't really think it would happen. My husband and I have been to Death Valley twice before, but never made...More
Rented a Jeep from Farabee. Cost an arm and a leg but it’s totally worth it for the peace of mind. You need almost the whole day if you decide to go. The racetrack is truly unique as you won’t find something like it anywhere...More
