Badwater Basin

The lowest point in North America, covered in salt flats.

The lowest point in North America, Badwater Basin in Death Valley National Park is an unmissable stop when you are in the vicinity. Consisting of a small spring-fed pool surrounded by salt, making the water undrinkable, Badwater Basin was so named. What makes this place exceptionally awesome would be the hexagonal honeycomb of thin salt crusts, transforming the landscape into salt flats. Although it is dangerous to walk on the salt flats themselves - they are too thin, there are designated walking areas from where you can take in the amazingly unique landscape. Spend some time at Badwater Basin, enthralled by the vastness of the beautiful landscape, and taking pictures of the incredible salt flats. This is one unique attraction you should not miss out on when in Death Valley.
