Soaring alpine peaks on both sides of the park make the scenic drive totally worth it. Gray mountains, some of which are 7,000 feet above the basin, stand above you as stony sentinels.
Hike to the top of Wheeler Peak, the second-tallest mountain in Nevada. Explore Wheeler Peak Glacier, one of the southernmost glaciers in North America.
See several notable features in Lehman Caves. The Cypress Swamp looks like there are several trees from floor to ceiling. Stalagmites and stalactites seem to droop and ooze in vertical columns.
