Hike Golden Canyon, Gower Gulch & Badlands Loop, Death Valley National Park, California
The Golden Canyon, Gower Gulch & Badlands Loop trail is 4.3 miles (6.9 km) and should take 2.5 to 3 hours. Golden Canyon is a short gorge that cuts into brightly colored sandstone rocks in many glowing shades of orange, gold and red, with the ever-present deep blue sky above making the hues seem especially sharp and intense. A paved road once ran the whole length but this has long been disused and most sections have eroded away. Now, travel on foot is the only option, and the hike is one of the most popular in the national park; combined with a return via adjacent Gower Gulch.
The Golden Canyon trailhead located 2 miles south of CA-190 on Badwater Road.
