Presentazione generale
Great Basin National Park
Millennial pines, caves and alpine peaks above the desert.
Wheeler Peak, Lehman Caves and Bristlecone Pine Trail give the most telling landmarks of Great Basin National Park. Together, they form a destination where mountain reliefs, desert areas and natural spaces meet, with atmospheres that change over the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
Vedi tutto
For a stay of 3 to 6 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Nature and panorama
Wheeler Peak
Wheeler Peak overlooks the Grand Bassin National Park with elevation slopes, coniferous forests and very wide views of the eastern Nevada. The scenic road then the trails gradually draw closer to the ice circuses, late snowfalls and a world far more alpine than the surrounding desert.
Nature and panorama
Lehman Caves
Lehman Caves Under the Grand Bassin, a tight decor of stalactites, columns, draperies and rare formations in the form of shields is revealed. The guided tour contrasts strongly with the dry mountains of the park: stable temperature, narrow passages and decorated rooms give another depth to the landscape.
Nature and panorama
Bristlecone Pine Trail
The Bristlecone Pine Trail leads to a forest of aristed pine trees, twisted by the wind whose pale wood seems carved. The walk gets fresh slopes under Wheeler Peak and speaks especially to travelers sensitive to the high altitude landscapes, where each trunk tells a slow resistance to cold and drought.
