The best camping near Ubehebe Crater guide

Overview

About

This 600-foot-deep half-mile wide crater is an essential site in Death Valley National Park. A unique geological formation, this crater was formed by steam eruptions anywhere between 2000 and 7000 years ago. A simple hike down into the crater will give you spectacular views of it' mountainous walls. Surrounding the Ubehebe Craters are many more small steam volcanoes that offer hours of hiking for those that can survive the heat in Death Valley.

When to go

The best time to visit Ubehebe Crater is during the cooler months from October to April. Summer temperatures can be extreme, making exploration less comfortable. Early mornings or late afternoons offer the most pleasant conditions for your volcanic adventure.

Know before you go

  • Wear sturdy shoes and bring plenty of water to stay hydrated during your exploration of the crater.
  • Check the National Park Service website for any alerts or closures before your visit.
  • Cell service may be limited, so plan accordingly and inform someone of your travel itinerary.
  • Respect the fragile environment by staying on designated trails and avoiding loose material on the crater rim.
  • Photography enthusiasts should bring their cameras to capture the crater's stunning geological features.
