Minutes from Joshua Tree park

The first few miles are MDLT property lined with Joshua Trees; a sign marks the “entrance” to the park. From there it’s a few miles to the Covington Flats picnic area, marked by a sign. If you continue on and head up the hill you reach Lower Covington Trail and eventually Eureka Peak.
The dirt roads in Covington Flats offer access to some of the park’s largest Joshua trees, junipers, and pinyon pines. From Covington Flats picnic area to Eureka Peak is 3.8 miles (6.2 km) one way. The dirt road is steep near the end, but the top offers views of Palm Springs, the surrounding mountains, and the Morongo Basin. There are a number of trails in the area and the Covington backcountry registration board is available for those wishing to backcountry camp.
