The Death Valley is crossed by only two roads. They meet at the Furnace Creek Ranch. In the first part of the Death Valley tour we enter the Valley from the north.

This route leads us from the east through the salt lakes to the lowest pont in the USA. At 289 ft below sea level we pass Badwater, a large salt lake with a panorama.

While the sun slowly lowers towards afternoon, it bathes the barren landscape in an exciting range of colours. The road seems to stretch out because its destination (still 124 miles away) is visible several hours in advance. The ascents and descents of this tour are rather few but very drawn-out and thus ideal for endurance cycling.

This tour ends at Furnace Creek and connects seamlessly to the first route through the Death Valley beginning at Furnace Creek, to the north.
