natural bridge canyon

This is a very steep hike in loose footing. They call it a constant 6% grade, but it seemed like much more than that. The bridge itself isn't all that spectacular. Although it does look like a big dog or dinosour head from the back side. If you are running short on time down the Badwater Road, there are better options.

As other reviewers have said, it's a rough, washboard one mile stretch of dirt road, but by taking your time and enjoying the desert along the way, you won't beat yourself or your vehicle to death and you'll be to the trail head before you know it. Pack a water bottle and your camera and set off up the canyon. This is an easy hike and only about a half mile in before you reach Natural Bridge. You can get some cool pictures on either side of the bridge, plus you've got another half-mile of hiking until your way is blocked by a dryfall. Still, lots of photographic opportunities along the way. Don't miss Natural Bridge Canyon!

On the road to Badwater this is a must stop. It is a bit more than a.mile off the main road, on a rough dirt road but take your time and it's worth the slower trek getting there. Once out of your vehicle itnis about a 20 minute walk to the bridge...take your time and bring water. The beauty of the bridge, canyon and rock formations is worth the trek.

Wonderful rock formations worth the horrible drive up to the parking lot. The road needs to be improved but try to get there.

Just a few miles north of Badwater off Badwater Rd, the Natural Bridge canyon begins up a short unpaved road which you can negotiate with any car. However, be aware that the upper part, steeper and around a bend is badly washboarded and has some decent rut in it, so be careful with a sedan. You reach a parking lot at the mouth of the canyon and then head in. The going is very easy and can be handled by everybody without mobility issues. The stone bridge is quite impressive and definitely worth seeing, but you don’t have to turn around there. You can head further up the canyon for a bit, over some dryfalls, till you reach a higher dryfall that would take real climbing.

We stopped here along our route. The bridge is only half way up and only half the enjoyment. We walked to the end and it was worth it to see the full valley in the mountains. It's not a difficult walk so just take water and all is easy.

A short trip, a short trek. There's really nothing much to see except the natural bridge and its just a walk uphill and downhill while returning. Could be missed!

This is nice stop on the way to bad water.A short hike, nice terrain. The road, which is approx 0.5 mile is unpaved, but not that bad.

If you're going down to visit Badwater, be sure to visit Natural Bridge. Its not that far away. The road to the parking lot is dirt but not too long and suitable for passenger vehicles if you go slowly. Its only a short hike in to the Natural Bridge which is really quite large and interesting. Continue hiking up the canyon for more exercise and adventure.

we had other priorities for our visit, but did stop briefly here. what we saw was nice. the bridge is neat, and the hike is nice.

This feature is a quick short hike from the parking area. The bridge makes for interesting photos. It is one of the lesser areas visited in Death Valley.

I drove up the gravel road in a Toyota Prius, it was a little scary, but I made it. After you park, the hike is about 1 mile up. Think about the fact that that's 1 easy mile down. Take water with you, and don't be embarrassed to seat down during the hike, I saw people doing it. It was all worth it, the natural bridge and the canyon is very different from other places in death valley. Amazing! and I agree that that attraction should be higher up in death valley.

I must disagree that the Natural Bridge is the 45th out of 49 attractions in Death Valley. You will need to turn off the badwater road and travel a short distance on a gravel road to reach the parking area. I am also surprised that the NB was only reviewed by one person as there were plenty of people at the bridge and on the trail. Far from being secluded! It is a relatively easy walk back to the Natural Bridge which is a great site. You do get some nice views south to Badwater, too. There is a seasonal waterfall along the path as well as you can continue down through the canyon. DON'T MISS IT

Natural Bridge is a well signposted obvious stop off point along the Badwater Road located up a gravel, unpaved road accessible to all vehicles. Parking is just off the main road in a small parking lot. Not nearly as impressive as any of the Arches in Arches National Park, still an interesting geological feature. From the trailhead Natural Bridge is an easy half mile walk up a slight incline to the arch. This feature is accessible to all abilities and ages, although wearing study shoes is advised due to loose rock and gravel. Go early to avoid the midday heat, although this canyon provides a welcome rest bite from the sun as for some of the day is in the shade. Natural Arch is a 15ft high arch, spanning 46m and was carved out by floodwaters running off the mountains. Do take an extra few minutes to pass under the archway and onwards to the dry waterfall cut into the rock face, this is the end of the trailhead. This is a quick stop, but a unique feature in Death Valley National Park.

Место удаленное - нужно ехать по грунтовке и еще идти пешком, но по сути того не стоит. Только разве что если вы хотите исследовать Долину вдоль и поперек.
